Police: 9 Arrested In Men's Bathroom Sex Sting At Central Florida Mall
Men Would Tap Feet, Zip Zippers Before Acts, Chief Says
Investigators said nine men were arrested Thursday night in a Sears department store men's room located in the Volusia Mall."These men would go into the men's room and they would tap their feet, zip their zipper, make all kinds of noises and even reach under the stall," Daytona Beach Police Chief Mike Chitwood said.The men arrested included SeaBreeze High School health teacher David Behringer and former city Commissioner Mike Shallow. Behringer resigned from his teaching position on Friday, Local 6 News reported."The undercover officer told me he actually tried to come under the stall, where he was actually looking up at the undercover officer while he was performing his act," Chitwood said.A 70-year-old man was also arrested during the 10-hour sex sting, police said."The bothering thing is that you are coming up on the Christmas season, so you are out there shopping in the mall and your kid wants to run to the bathroom, you have a bunch of sick, degenerate, vile perverts in there doing their thing," Chitwood said.Officers said the sting was prompted by tips from mall security."Of course, everybody denies, (and says) 'It wasn't us,'" Chitwood said. "We certainly didn't go there and entice anybody, and we didn't put an ad out."Watch Local 6 News for more on this story.
