IRVINE, CA — A 37-year-old internet installer from Hemet was arrested after he texted himself an explicit video from a customer's mobile phone during an installation, police announced on Tuesday.

On Sept. 9, a woman in Irvine reported to police that last month she had GFiber install internet service in her apartment. During the installation, the installer asked her to use her cell phone to "test the Wi-Fi" signal. After 10 to 15 minutes, the victim checked on the installer, but she could not see what the man was doing with the phone, according to the Irvine Police Department.

The woman later discovered that a sexually explicit video she had sent to her partner via text message had also been sent from her phone to another device through iMessage. She found the message on her linked iPad, even though it had been deleted from her phone, according to the Irvine Police Department.
