A 22-year-old Arva, Ont., man is facing a charge of voyeurism following an incident over the weekend at a public swimming pool in London’s east end, police said Tuesday.

The incident occurred on Sunday when police say a woman in a private changing room observed a cell phone being held above the bathroom stall and pointed in her direction as she was changing.

A man exiting the adjacent stall was confronted by the woman, and witnesses who saw the interaction contacted police, officials said.
