A Kailua-Kona fitness instructor chased down a man who allegedly peeped on her in the restroom at Target on Wednesday evening.
Katie Moore was on her way to teach a Zumba class around 5 p.m. when she stopped at the Kailua-Kona store to use the restroom when she noticed a man peering over the partition.
She said she followed him out of the restroom and chased him out of the Target parking lot onto Loloku Street. Moore and bystanders were subsequently able to corner the man, identified as 18-year-old Dancy Lakjohn, near Kekuaokalani Gymnasium.
Lakjohn was subsequently arrested and charged with felony terroristic threatening, fourth-degree sexual assault, third-degree assault and second-degree criminal trespassing.
Calls to Target were directed to the corporation’s media representative, who had not responded to phone calls and emails at deadline.
It is the second recent report of a “Peeping Tom” incident. Police late last month arrested a 15-year-old boy accused of repeatedly peering into windows in the Waikoloa Village following a four-month investigation.
