A 28-year-old man has been arrested after police said he is suspected of  recording a girl in the fitting room of Forever 21 at the Arizona Mills Mall in Tempe.

Police were called to the store about 3:30 p.m. March 28, and the girl told them she was inside a fitting room stall when she noticed that the person next to hers had placed a soda on the upper ledge of the stall.

While changing her clothes, the teenager saw a cell phone fall from the ledge and onto the floor inside her changing room, police said in a release.

She noticed the device recording “and immediately stopped it.

“She reviewed the phone’s photos and found several images of her undressed. The victim notified a store employee who kept the phone in a drawer until officers arrived,” the release stated.

Matthew Villalobos confirmed to police that the phone belonged to him, police said. Villalobos was asked to provide his password to unlock the phone; however, he gave officers incorrect codes, according to authorities.

 A search warrant was issued to inspect the phone, and investigators found images confirming the victim’s allegations.

An investigation continues as police work on determining whether there are additional victims.

Villalobos was arrested at the mall and booked into jail on felony charges for surreptitious recording and sexual exploitation of a minor.
