A peeping tom is reportedly stalking a teenage girl in the Village of Oak Creek.
The unknown suspect appeared at the girl’s bedroom window at 9 p.m., Monday, June 13, while she was with two friends at home in the 400 block of Verde Valley School Road in the VOC. He called out the girl’s first name in a low voice, according to Dwight D’Evelyn, public information officer with the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office.
The girl called her father and told him the man had not left and was knocking on various windows around the house. The three had locked themselves in a windowless room and waited for help.
The victim and her friends described the suspect as a white male, over 6 feet 4 inches tall, possibly in his 50s, with either a shaved or bald head, noticeably wrinkled forehead and no evident facial hair. The suspect wore dark clothing.
YCSO deputies arrived within 10 minutes but the suspect was gone. The father arrived shortly thereafter. The deputies began looking for the suspect in the nearby neighborhoods but could not find him.
The deputies interviewed the victim and her family to discover this was not the first incident. The same suspect had appeared at her window before between May and mid-June and tapped on her window but the incidents had not been reported.
The girl stated the man called out her name in a low voice once before.
Anyone with information regarding these incidents or knowledge of the suspect’s identity should contact YCSO immediately at (928) 771-3260 or Yavapai Silent Witness at (800) 932-3232.
