Police: Sex Offender Caught Peering In Children's Apartment Window

Mentor Police arrested a man who is accused of peeking into the bedroom of two children, according to the Mentor Police Department Facebook page.

Mentor detectives noticed Erik Wisch, 31, of Painesville, peering into an apartment window at Heatherstone Condos Monday evening.

He got into his car but police pulled him over. He was sweaty and his zipper was down, police said.

The window he was looking into belonged to two children under the age of five.

Wisch was charged with attempted voyeurism, possession of drug paraphernalia, reckless operation of a vehicle and failure to wear a seat belt.

These charges are misdemeanors and Wisch posted bond after his arraignment Tuesday.

Wisch was convicted through Painesville Municipal court in 2010 for committing a sex act while peering into a child's bedroom and is a registered Tier 1 sex offender.
