PHILADELPHIA, PA – College students living in Philadelphia already have a lot to contend with when it comes to the city where criminals often target them. Now, another form of criminal is targeting college students in Philadelphia, especially those living off-campus near Temple University.
Today, the Philadelphia Police Department Special Victims Unit is attempting to identify a male suspect depicted in a video, who is accused of being a peeping Tom.
According to police, the incident occurred on the 1800 block of N. 16th Street at approximately 7:23 pm on December 18.
“The male was seen at this location on December 1, 2022, as well and the following video contains footage from both incidents. He was reportedly peering into the windows of an off-campus student housing apartment complex,” the PPD said today.
The suspect is described as a Hispanic male, 30 to 35 years of age, 5’6″, stocky build, wearing a brown jacket, blue jeans, dark knit hat, white sneakers, and was operating a silver Honda Civic with a broken passenger-side headlight and an expired PA temp tag of 3827-305.
