He had been wanted for several months.
A 32-year-old man was arrested on October 7 and taken into custody at the Mulhouse (Haut-Rhin) police station.
He is suspected of attempted kidnapping and bribery of minors near a college, reports L'Alsace.
Numerous reports of teenage girls accosted around the Jean-XXIII establishment in Mulhouse had been reported.
This Kosovar national, claiming to find his way on his cell phone, would have shown pornographic videos to young girls.
He would have followed some of them, who had run away.
The suspect allegedly even tried to prevent the victims from returning to their homes.
A robot portrait of the aggressor
A robot portrait of the aggressor had been drawn up by the departmental security minors' brigade, thanks to the testimony of the complainants.
The man was recognized in photos by college girls, which led to his arrest.
According to France Bleu Alsace, similar complaints would have been filed in other municipalities in the department, such as Colmar, Lutterbach and Bollwiller, where the thirty-something would have acted.
The investigators will therefore extend the investigations to the departmental level.
