A convicted sex offender was arrested after he was caught snapping pictures of young children a Walmart in Katy.
Mark Yarloff, 57, was approached by the mother of two young girls, ages 2 and 3, after she noticed him taking pictures, according to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.
Yarloff told the woman “Oh, I am sorry; I thought they were beautiful,” the sheriff’s office said. The woman asked him to delete the pictures from his camera and he did so.
The girls’ mother called the sheriff’s office about what she believed was suspicious activity. When deputies questioned the suspect, they discovered he was a registered sex offender, having been convicted of two offenses involving teen girls in California in 1993.
He was arrested and is being held without bond on a charge of improper photography, a crime that involves photographing someone without their consent for the purpose of sexual pleasure, according to court records.
