TORONTO — A Toronto man has been arrested after allegedly using a camera hidden in a thermos to film people in a washroom.

Police say officers responded to a call about a suspicious incident at the Rexdale Community Health Centre last Friday and seized a silver thermos located in a staff washroom.

They say a pinhole camera was located in the thermos.

Police allege the device was used to film staff members inside the washroom.

They say 48-year-old Wayne Bassaragh has been charged with 10 counts of voyeurism, mischief interfering with property and corrupting morals.

Police say Bassaragh is a chiropodist at the community centre and also has other clinics in the Greater Toronto Area.
