A 27-year-old man was arrested Thursday after police in Saint John, N.B., issued a warning last month about a male “prowling” in the early morning hours.

The Saint John Police Force says the man, who has not yet been identified, is facing five counts of voyeurism in connection with the incidents.

The man was released on conditions and is due to appear in provincial court on Sept. 19.

Police said last month they had received reports of a man in dark clothing peeking through ground-level windows in the areas of Newport Crescent, Davenport Avenue and Technology Drive. They issued a warning on May 1, urging the public “to be vigilant.”

No other details have been released at this time.
