Police in Gwinnett County are on the lookout for a man accused of using his cell phone to secretly film under a woman's clothing, a violation that turned a mundane grocery trip into a call for justice. The unsettling event unfolded at a Snellville Publix along Centerville Highway on the evening of April 11, as confirmed by sources close to the investigation.

The victim, while perusing produce, sensed an intruder into her personal space and discovered the suspect crouching with his phone aimed indiscreetly upwards, it was an invasion abruptly interrupted when she turned to find the man and his device on the ground, its camera light glaring back at her, according to FOX 5. The police, spurred by both the woman's confrontation and a store employee's corroborating action, are now soliciting the public's assistance to identify the man in question.

Shocked shoppers have expressed their dismay, with Megan Monghan telling FOX 5, "That is very disturbing and shocking because in this area, I see a lot of women by themselves shopping so that's very disturbing to hear." Gwinnett County Police, seeking to quell fears, underscore the anomaly of such events, with Sgt. Michele Pihera commenting, "I think that as a community, we don't need to be concerned that this is happening everywhere," and adding the rarity of such cases in her experience as public information officer.

Authorities have not yet apprehended the suspect but are enlisting community vigilance urging anyone with knowledge regarding the individual's identity to make contact, the discreetness of the act not undermining the gravity of its intention, information can be submitted confidentially by calling (404) 577-8477, as was mentioned in both FOX 5 and Atlanta News First coverage of the incident.
