The search is on for a peeping Tom in San Diego, and police are asking for the public's help to catch the voyeur. The man, believed to be in his 30s or 40s, was reportedly caught on a Ring security camera while engaging in some unsettling spying in the 5700 block of Dorothy Drive, according to the San Diego Police Department's Facebook post.

The incident on December 28 saw the man lurking by a backyard window, peering in at unsuspecting women. His actions turned heads when he was seen picking up and examining the said security camera before being confronted by the residents and fleeing, shoes in hand. The suspect, barefoot then, left a concerning impression on the victims.

San Diego's finest have shared a description of the suspect: a shaved head, bearing a beard, a muscular build, a tattoo on his left forearm, and perhaps sporting stud earrings. Furthermore, the same suspect may have been prowling the night before, peeking through another neighbor’s window.

Law enforcement officials have intensified their efforts to apprehend this brazen peeper, urging anyone with knowledge of the man or the incident to step forward. Seen carrying his shoes, this individual might find it easier to identify with his distinctive features and recent activity in the neighborhood. "If you recognize this suspect or have any relevant information," the Eastern Division is reachable at (858) 495-7900, and tips can be anonymously submitted to Crime Stoppers at (888) 580-8477.
