Morton released from prison earlier this year for similar crimes

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – A serial Peeping Tom has been arrested again.

Erric Morton is accused of planting cameras in public places around Ann Arbor.

The new accusations come just as Morton was released from prison for similar crimes.

The videos were taken in public restrooms and children were involved. Police are putting together a long list of people who were victimized.

Morton has previously served time in prison for 17 charges of capturing images of unclothed people. He hid cameras in porta potties at little league games and had more than 7,000 videos.

He is also accused of distributing the videos. If you believe you may have been victimized, Ann Arbor police want you to call their TIPS line at 734-794-6939.
