Port Angeles High School Custodian Arrested
PORT ANGELES - A custodian at Port Angeles High School has been accused of taking digital photos up the skirts of students.

Police say the 53-year-old man was arrested Monday by an officer assigned to the school.

Students told the principal that they saw the man acting suspiciously after lunch. They said the custodian followed a female student up some stairs and then pulled out a digital camera and took pictures of her from behind.

The custodian has been a part-time employee with the district since 1994.

He was booked into jail for investigation of voyeurism. Police are trying to identify victims from the photos in the camera.
