Man watched woman in 3rd-floor bathroom at Michigan Union, police say
A staffer from the University of Michigan reported an unknown man watched her while she was in a third-floor bathroom at the Michigan Union Wednesday, according to university police.
Diane Brown, spokeswoman for the U-M Department of Public Safety, said the woman encountered the man in the third-floor bathroom just before 4 p.m. The man fled out of the bathroom and down a nearby staircase, the woman reported.
The man is described as black, with short black hair, wearing a blue and army green jacket, with skater-style shoes and carrying a black backpack along with a green article of clothing that was possibly a sweatshirt.
Police are still investigating the incident and are on the lookout for the man. Anyone with information on the man is encouraged to call the Department of Public Safety’s anonymous tip line at 1-800-863-1355.

The fourth floor bathroom in the Michigan Union (outside the MSA meeting room) is a gender neutral bathroom, which allows both men and women to use the same bathroom, sitting in stalls next to each other. It seems strange that the University encourages the same bahaviour in the fourth floor bathroom that is a crime in the third floor bathroom.

I take it that the man was already in the bathroom when she went in? (apparently she didn't see him at first) That would be very upsetting to me, as I am sure it was for her. Good clothing description, I hope he is caught soon.

These perps are never caught. They change their clothes quickly and are off to commit more crimes.

I wonder if he/she forgot which sex he was?

"The man is described as black, with short black hair, wearing a blue and army green jacket, with skater-style shoes and carrying a black backpack along with a green article of clothing that was possibly a sweatshirt." " Anyone with information on the man is encouraged to call the Department of Public Safety's anonymous tip line at 1-800-863-1355." So basically if you see a black guy with short hair wearing clothes call the police. Gotcha

Actually, the only true "skater shoes" I know of or either Chuck Taylors or Vans,so that narrows it down some.
