A 44 year old Takoma Park man has been arrested and charged with multiple counts of peeping tom after police say he disguised himself as a woman to record women in a Germantown gym locker room, and detectives are asking any additional victims to come forward.
According to to MCPD, “On Friday, October 10, 2025, Montgomery County Department of Police – 5th District officers responded to One Life Fitness Club, located in the 20500 block of Seneca Meadows Parkway in Germantown after a woman reported an unknown suspect entered the women’s locker room and recorded her in the shower.
Fifth District officers conducted an extensive investigation and identified the suspect as Tshikundi Taty of Takoma Park. During the investigation it was determined that Taty would disguise himself as a woman to gain entry into the women’s locker room. After the crime, he would then remove the disguise in an attempt to conceal his identity, and flea the scene.
On Wednesday, October 29, 2025, officers followed Taty to a Planet Fitness in White Oak. Taty was located in the women’s locker room disguised as a woman. Taty was quickly taken into custody and transported to the Montgomery County Central Processing Unit. He has been charged with multiple counts of peeping tom and related offenses.
