Dearborn Heights, Michigan- Police arrested a 41-year-old Dearborn Heights man Thursday who is charged with with peering into and trying to enter bathroom stalls occupied by two girls at the Briarwood Mall earlier this week.

Gary Wayne Carr was arrested at 8:30 p.m. Thursday in Dearborn Heights after police received a tip of where he could be found, said Ann Arbor Police Lt. Angella Abrams.

Abrams said the Ann Arbor Police contacted the Dearborn Heights police and they staked out the residence until Carr was found.

Abrams said Carr will be arraigned today on a four-count felony warrant with two counts of accosting a minor child for immoral purposes, a four-year felony, and two counts of surveilling an unclothed person, a two-year felony. He also faces sexually delinquent person charges, which are punishable by up to life in prison.

Police identified Carr as a suspect after he left his car overnight at Briarwood Mall after police say he was chased on foot and escaped across I-94 Tuesday evening.

The girls, ages 8 and 11 of Ypsilanti Township, said a man entered a bathroom near the movie theater at the mall and was peering at them in their stalls and attempting to open the doors. As the girls and their father were leaving the mall, they saw the man in the parking lot. The father told police he tried to stop the man and struck him twice with his car before he and others chased him on foot

Back Story: DEARBORN HEIGHTS — Police are on the lookout for a Dearborn Heights man who allegedly peeped at two girls through a movie theater bathroom stall and twice escaped — even after being hit by their father’s car.

Washtenaw County prosecutors issued a warrant Thursday seeking four felony charges against Gary Wayne Carr, 41.

Police say he peeked through cracks and shook bathroom doors to get a better glimpse of two Ypsilanti Township sisters, ages 8 and 11, on Tuesday night at Briarwood Mall in Ann Arbor.

They told their father, who saw the man and chased him into the mall parking lot, police said. He got away.

A police search found nothing until, two hours later, the family again saw the peeper in the same lot. The father struck the man with his car, but he ran across Interstate 94 to freedom, said Ann Arbor Sgt. Jeff Connelly.

The man’s luck ran out when he left his car in the mall’s parking lot after all others were gone, Connelly said. A simple license check led them to Carr, Connelly said.

“Even scuzzy criminals don’t put up with guys like this,” Connelly said. “Even his pals may turn him in.”

The warrant is for two counts of accosting a minor child for immoral behavior, a four-year felony, and two counts of watching an unclothed person, a two-year felony, Connelly said.

Police are seeking any information on the whereabouts of Carr, who is described as 5 feet 9 inches and 195 pounds with brown receding hair and blue eyes.
