Police: Private School Teacher Caught Taking Upskirt Video

CHICAGO (CBS) -- An art and shop teacher at the Francis W. Parker School in Lincoln Park was busted using his iPhone to take upskirt pictures of a woman at a street festival over the weekend, police said.

Jeremy Lee, 35, of the 1400 block of West Chicago Avenue, was arrested during the Renegade Craft Fair, at 1814 W. Division St. in the Wicker Park neighborhood.

A security video set up at the festival on Division Street captured Lee using his iPhone to take a video recording of a woman under her skirt without her knowledge, according to a police report.

He used an umbrella to disguise what he was doing, according to the report.

The victim signed complaints and Lee, who told police he was an art teacher at Francis Parker, was arrested and charged with a misdemeanor count of video recording a person's body without their consent.

According to the school's Web site, Lee also teaches wood shop and metalsmithing classes at the private school, at 330 W. Webster Ave.

Francis Parker enrolls students from junior kindergarten through grade 12, and counts Daryl Hannah, David Mamet and Anne Heche among its alumni.

A representative of the school did not immediately return calls for comment.
