Brick Man Caught Taking Photos Up Woman's Dress In ShopRite: PD

BRICK, NJ — A Brick Township man was arrested Tuesday after he was seen by a witness and on surveillance video taking photos under a woman's dress, police said Wednesday.

Donald Sheridan, 62, has been charged with invasion of privacy in the incident that happened about 7:30 p.m. at ShopRite, Brick Sgt. Jim Kelly said.

Kelly said a witness saw Sheridan crouching down and holding his cell phone under the woman's dress and confronted Sheridan, yelling, "I know what you're doing." The witness stayed with Sheridan while the victim asked store personnel to call the police, Kelly said.

Officers Scott Smith, Harry Theibault and Cody Oliverio interviewed those involved and reviewed the security footage, which shows Sheridan positioning himself to hold his cell phone under the victim’s dress, Kelly said.

Sheridan was processed and released on a summons, Kelly said.

The names of the victim and witness are being withheld to protect their privacy, he said.

"Brick Township Police commend this witness for getting involved and acknowledge that public safety is best served when the police and community work as a team," he said.
