An Illinois doctor was arrested and charged with a felony after he allegedly placed a video camera in a hospital bathroom to record female employees, according to county officials.
Henry Chang, 28, a doctor at a medical center in the central Illinois county of Peoria is being held in jail on a $10,000 bond, according to Peoria County State's Attorney Jodi Hoos. He is charged with unlawful video recording, a Class 4 felony.
"We encourage anyone who believes they may have been recorded that day to contact either the Peoria Police Department or Peoria County State’s Attorney Investigators," Hoos said in a news release.
Peoria police responded to a call from the medical center on Wednesday that a camera was found in a women's bathroom. A female employee found it after it fell from its alleged hiding spot in the bathroom.
On the camera, officers found videos of women using the bathroom on Aug. 9 and a video of Chang setting up the camera.
Detectives have not identified the woman in the video.
