A man caught on camera placing a phone underneath a woman’s dress has been arrested. According to detectives with the Broward Sheriff’s Office North Lauderdale District, Ciano Brown surrendered to authorities late Sunday night. 

                                                                                  

The crime occurred at approximately 6:47 p.m., Friday, Sept 9, at 7900 W. McNab Road. Surveillance video released to the public on Friday, Sept. 23, shows the female victim dressed in a floral dress browsing through the cosmetic aisle of a store. A man wearing a teal baseball cap and dark-colored clothes is then seen walking toward the victim before bending down and extending his arm under the woman’s dress. In the subject’s hand is a cellphone, which detectives believe he used to videotape and or take pictures of the victim’s undergarments without her permission or knowledge. 

Through investigative means, detectives identified Brown as the man in the video, and a warrant was issued for his arrest. Detectives also learned Brown was arrested last year in Miami-Dade County for voyeurism.  

On Sunday, Sept. 25, Brown went to the BSO Main Jail and turned himself in. He was taken into custody at approximately 11:27 p.m. and faces one count of video voyeurism. 

The investigation continues.
