A man has been arrested after allegedly performing an indecent act on a Canberra bus while in front of a teenage girl who videoed the incident.
ACT Policing said the teenager was on the bus when she allegedly saw a male passenger sitting nearby committing an indecent act at about 7:15 pm on 14 January 2024.
She videoed the incident and the matter was reported to police that evening.
Police obtained security camera footage from the bus and began inquiries into the man’s identity.
At about 7 pm on Wednesday (16 October), police officers were called to the Gungahlin Marketplace following reports of a man looking into change rooms in a store.
“The man was identified using CCTV footage from the January 14 incident and he was arrested yesterday,” a police spokesperson said on Thursday (17 October).
The 30-year-old man from Casey was charged with committing an act of indecency on a person under 16 years.
He faced ACT Magistrates Court on Thursday.
