from www.nydailynews.com - A porn star once busted for allegedly flashing women on New York subways was arrested outside Los Angeles for stalking two teenage girls, officials said Tuesday.
California Highway Patrol officers cuffed Ken Hoyt, 44, at his Hollywood home on Friday after cops said he followed two young girls in his car, Officer Luis Mendoza said.
"They were in the vehicle running errands," Mendoza said. The driver "tried to get away from his vehicle. She feared for her life. She knew that the person was up to no good."
Hoyt - who starred in adult videos such as "Sexcetera" and "Big Gulp" - was charged with stalking and failure to re-register as a sex offender when he moved from New York to California, authorities said.
He was still in the L.A. County Jail last night after he failed to come up with $370,000 bail, officials said. Hoyt is a registered sex offender in California, New York and Nevada.
In 2006, the NYPD nabbed Hall after five New York women said the sicko exposed himself to them while riding the N, Q, R and 6 trains.
A Manhattan judge dropped the charges against Hoyt after prosecutors missed the deadline to file the proper paperwork.
from www.wpix.com: HOLLYWOOD (WPIX) - A man accused of exposing himself to young girls in the New York City subway system over three years ago is at it again, this time some 3,000 miles away.
According to California authorities, Kenneth Allen Hoyt, 44, was arrested at his Hollywood home Friday after he was accused of following and harassing two teenage girls while driving.
Hoyt was reportedly booked on suspicion of a felony, and was being held in lieu of $370,000 bail, police said.
A probe was launched by the California Highway Patrol into Hoyt's affairs, after authorities reported multiple 911 calls from cell phones reporting that, "Hoyt was continuously following and harassing two female teenagers while driving through several Southland streets and freeways," California Highway Patrol Officer Luis Mendoza said in a statement.
Hoyt, who was convicted of a sex offense in California in 1986 after having sex with a 13-year-old girl, also failed to register as a sex offender when he moved back to the state after living in Nevada and New York, Mendoza said.
Hoyt, who has ties to the porn business and is also a registered sex offender in New York, was busted five times in 2006 for allegedly masturbating on Manhattan subways - once in front of two 16-year-old girls.
The misdemeanor charges filed against Hoyt - including seven counts of public lewdness, one count of indecent exposure, two counts of child endangerment - were dismissed by a criminal court judge because the Manhattan District Attorney's Office missed the legal deadline for bringing Hoyt to trial.
During his headline making days, the accused pervert came to be known as "The Subway Fiend" in and around the New York area.
Hoyt is expected to appear in court on August 3, in downtown Los Angeles.
