A Toledo man was charged yesterday with taking pictures with his cell phone of women in a restroom at Owens Community College in Perrysburg Township, police said.

Tyreese Smith, 26, was charged with two counts of voyeurism and is to appear in Perrysburg Municipal Court. He was released on his own recognizance.

Police said they received a complaint about 8:40 a.m. that a man was hiding in the ceiling area of a women's restroom in a building on the Owens campus. From that vantage point, the man was taking photos with his phone of women using the facility.

Mr. Smith is a former student at the college.

College spokesman Brad Meyer referred all questions about the incident to police.
