Man arrested for recording stranger in bathroom

Redwood City Police have arrested a man who allegedly tried to record a stranger in the women’s bathroom at Red Morton Park.

Multiple people called police on Sunday afternoon when a man, later identified as Wilson Velasquez Martinez, 32, of Redwood City, went into the women’s bathroom and tried to record an occupied stall with his cell phone, police said.

The woman, a 32-year-old from Vacaville, screamed, and her husband and other family members confronted Martinez, police said.

Martinez fled in a blue Honda Fit before police arrived, police said.

Police were able to identify Martinez and got an arrest warrant. Martinez was arrested yesterday and booked into jail for making an illegal recording in a restroom.
