(Seattle, Washington) A 20-year-old convicted sex offender, Kyle Lee Hammond, was arrested earlier this month for allegedly trying to take up-skirt photos of two 17-year-old girls on a city bus. Hammond faces charges of voyeurism and failure to register as a sex offender.
According to officers, Hammond approached the girls at a bus stop and then followed them, boarding a bus to Sea-Tac Airport.
He sat across from the girls, asking them which high school they went to as he apparently took photos with his cell phone, police said.Hammond was booked into custody at the King County Jail with bail set at $100,000.
As the bus reached Sea-Tac, the girls fled into the terminal and phoned police. According to police report, both girls, crying and frightened that Hammond would return, gave Port of Seattle officers a description of their assailant.
Officers arrested Hammond nearby after a short chase. Searching his backpack, they found several printouts of nude preteen girls as well as paperwork showing he'd been incarcerated in North Dakota after being convicted of sex crimes.
