A man described by police as a “serial foot grabber” was arrested this week at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke Monday.

University police apprehended 49-year-old Christopher J. Deas on Monday after a faculty member reported his presence inside a classroom. Deas was charged with trespassing, according to police.

University officials stated that Deas remains under a criminal trespass notice, which legally prohibits him from returning to the property.

Officials said Deas has a history of visiting college campuses in North and South Carolina and grabbing women’s feet.

Despite being banned, he is known to return to campuses.
