NORMAL – Illinois State University police are asking for help locating a man who was photographing people in the men’s bathroom.

The police were called at 11:18 a.m. Wednesday to State Farm Hall on ISU’s campus to several reports of someone being chased and yelling “help,” they said in a post on their Facebook page.

When they arrived, officers were told a man had been taking photos of another individual in the men’s restroom. The person being photographed chased after the man taking photos and chased him out of the building, they said.

The situation is currently being investigated, but anyone who has information on the man pictured above is encouraged to contact the university’s police.
