A 60-year-old man was arrested by Vancouver, Washington, police after allegedly masturbating outside of a school and attempting to lure children to his home with candy, according to Clark County Today.
Jacques D. Lesueur was allegedly seen talking to middle schoolers and putting his mouth on a child’s ear at a bus stop, according to Clark County Today.
