A North Carolina man was arrested on Sunday, after he was caught looking under a woman's bathroom stall at a Cracker Barrel restaurant, according to Duncan police Chief Carl Long.
WYFF News 4 reports that a 15 year-old girl spotted Douglas Lane, looking underneath a stall. Chief Long stated the parents were in town for a girls softball tournament. One witness said they were standing in the restaurant when they heard yelling, "Get him, he's getting away." A panicked Lane was witnessed sprinting out the door.
Another witness captured video of Lane on the ground with a bloodied face and shirt outside the restaurant. Parents allegedly tackled him.
Lane was charged with voyeurism, simple possession of marijuana and paraphernalia, Long said.
A bond hearing for Lane was held Monday, where Lane told authorities he didn't realize he was in the women's bathroom until he sat down.
Lane is a repeated registered sex offender in North Carolina, and has been since 2008.
Records show he was convicted of secretly peeping into an occupied room in 2004 in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. The record says the victims were 8 and 9 years old.
He also was convicted in 2008 in the same county for doing the exact same thing, except the victim was 18 year-old or older.
The South Carolina sex offender registry says Lane was convicted of peeping, voyeurism or aggravated voyeurism in South Carolina in 1997 and failure to register in 1999.
