PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Police say a Temple University student was arrested and charged after hidden cameras were found inside the bathrooms of his off-campus residence.
Authorities say 21-year-old Michael Nguyen planted three cameras disguised as pens inside the bathrooms of a residence he shared with his now former Delta Chi Psi fraternity brothers on 17th Street and Montgomery Avenue.
Police say they received a report about the cameras following a party there on Nov. 22.
Officials say multiple people — all of whom they believe are Temple students — were captured on video.
An arrest warrant was issued for Nguyen, a senior at the university, on Jan. 17. He surrendered to police a few days later and was charged with eight counts of invasion of privacy.
Delta Chi Psi released a statement following a detailed post on a Temple Reddit page with images of Nguyen's court records, saying they “immediately” confronted Nguyen and “he admitted to his actions.”
They say he was expelled from the fraternity “without hesitation.”
Police urge anyone who believes they may have been a victim in this case to contact the Special Victims Unit at 215-685-3260.
