Police Seek Info on Arrested Sex Offender David Zimmer

Police are seeking the public's help for information about a man they arrested for allegedly taking photos of a 9-year-old girl.

The 66th Precinct has charged 40-year-old David Zimmer with endangering the welfare of a child and harassment for the incident they say happened on January 2 in the hallway of a Borough Park apartment building. The NYPD is now looking for anyone who knows of any children who may have been in contact with Zimmer, a registered sex offender who was arrested in 1999 for sexually abusing a 10-year-old girl.

If you know of a child who was in contact with him, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website or by texting their tips to 274637 (CRIMES) then entering TIP577. Police say all calls are strictly confidential.
