SHERIFF'S OFFICERS CHARGE STORE EMPLOYEE WITH ASSAULT, INDECENT EXPOSURE AND VISUAL SURVEILLANCE WITH PRURIENT INTENT: On January 24, Charles County Sheriff's detectives arrested Michael David Gordon, 27, of Brandywine, in connection with three separate criminal incidents that occurred at the PacSun store located at 11110 Mall Circle. Investigation revealed on January 9, Gordon - a store employee - made lewd comments and gestures to three different females - ages 18, 15 and 14. In the first case, Gordon grabbed an 18-year-old female, pulled her into a dressing room and exposed himself. The victim left and Gordon turned to another customer, a 15-year-old girl, while still exposed. The third incident occurred when a 14-year-old customer observed Gordon lying on the floor of a fitting room watching her as she tried on clothing in an adjacent room. Gordon was charged with second-degree assault, indecent exposure, peeping tom and visual surveillance with prurient intent (spying in the dressing room). He was remanded to the Charles County Detention Center with a $5,000 bond. Officer S. Duley and Detective K. Klezia are investigating.
