Masturbating intruder took picture of woman on her own phone and put it on Facebook

Police are hunting a masturbating flasher who broke into a home, took a photo of a woman showering with her own phone then posted it on her Facebook page.

The bizarre and disturbing crime took place at a residential complex in Altamonte Springs, Florida, US.

Locals had previously reported a man touching himself outside an apartment window, reports WESH 2 News.

But on Wednesday night officers were called to the scene after the same suspected flasher broke into a home.

While inside, he saw a woman in the shower and used her phone to take a picture of her.

Flasher masturbates outside window, breaks into home and does something even more disturbing

After police arrived the photo was posted on her Facebook page.

Altamonte Springs police spokesman Rob Pelton said: ‘Having someone actually in your apartment while you are taking a shower is quite scary honestly.

‘Going to get a victim’s cell phone and having the gall to stand inside of a residence that you have broken into to steal someone’s cell phone and use it to take a picture of them in the shower is unheard of.’
