Story from our sister station, WEAU-TV in Eau Claire.
A local radio DJ faces criminal charges after police say he videotaped high school girls changing at a recent volleyball tournament.
Bruce Edward Moores, or ‘Ray' Moores as he's known on the radio, was arrested at UW-Stout. He was arrested for disorderly conduct and booked into the Dunn County Jail. He later posted bond.
The UW-Stout police chief says Moores, 49, was convicted of sexual assault of a child by a person in a position of trust in Colorado in 1992. Chief Lisa Walter says Moores was sentenced to prison for the charge.
UW-Stout Spokesman Doug Mell says on Friday night the girls were changing out of their jerseys in the corner of the gym at the university when the video was taken.
WEAU talked to a couple of the players, who we are not identifying. They told us they had noticed Moores around with his video camera, but he told them he was with the media.
The high school volleyball players say they're used being videotaped while they play. But the girls say on Friday night, Moores took it too far.
“We saw the camera and we were just kind of like why is it directly on us? He had a hand camera and he was like scanning it over us and one of our teammates told our coach. As soon as the coach looked at him he took the camera and put it down and then he walked away," the girls say.
That's when Mell says the girls' coaches called police.
"I can only say the best things about the coaches that actually stepped forward. They're the ones that noticed the individual doing the taping and called the authorities," Mell says.
Mell says when UW-Stout Police approached Moores, he willingly showed officers his video and was arrested.
"Our concern is for the safety. Our concern is for the health of anyone on the UW campus," Mell says.
As the investigation continues, the girls say they've learned a tough lesson at the start of a new season.
"We just I guess need to be more aware of our surroundings and what we're doing cause there could be people like that everywhere," the girls say.
An Eau Claire Police report obtained by WEAU 13 News shows Moores was ticketed for trespassing in Eau Claire in June. The report says a security guard found him and an 18-year-old woman engaged in a sex act in a vacant office at Banbury Place
George Roberts at Maverick Media says Moores is on administrative leave as the investigation continues. He didn't want to comment further.
'Ray' Moores has also appeared on WEAU in the past, but he will not be appearing on the air while the investigation continues.
We tried to reach Moores for comment Wednesday afternoon, but were unsuccessful.
According to the UW-Stout police report, Moores is expected in court on September 28.
