Police say man peeped through neighbor's windows

BUTLER TWP — An alleged “peeping Tom” is accused of looking into the windows of a woman's house on Meridian Road.

Butler Township police believe 69-year-old Ronald R. Worst peered into the neighbor's home on three different nights in August and September.

The alleged victim's surveillance system, police said, helped lead to his arrest last week.

District Judge Lewis Stoughton on Friday arraigned Worst on charges of stalking and three counts of loitering or prowling at night. He is free on $5,000 bail.

On Sept. 8, the woman reported seeing a man, who she believed was Worst, walking outside her house. Police reviewed the woman's surveillance footage, but the video was “not clear enough” to identify the defendant, documents said.

The security camera, however, subsequently captured images of Worst on Sept. 11 and 13 walking around the outside the home.

On at least one of those nights, police said, he “can be seen looking in the windows of the residence.”

A full report will appear in the Butler Eagle.
