A man of habits.
A septuagenarian was arrested Thursday in Toulouse for a sexual assault committed the day before in the metro.
The victim, a 19-year-old passenger, was traveling in a line A train when the septuagenarian sat next to her, sticking her excessively while fiddling with her private parts.
The young girl chose to flee to the Capitole station but the "scrubber" got up after her.
While accelerating the pace, she took a picture with her smartphone.
She then rushed ahead of a CRS patrol and showed them the photo.
Immediate searches proved fruitless.
But the police had the idea of returning the next day at the same time slot – 4 p.m., 4:30 p.m. – always with the photo.
And, this time, they found and arrested the suspect.
The latter, aged 74, was already known for similar facts.
He was still in custody on Friday, pending a psychiatric examination.
