The Kennesaw State Police Department arrested a suspect without incident June 30 following allegations that he had exposed himself to a female student at KSU.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the incident occurred one week after a female KSU student reported to campus authorities that a man fitting the description of Kamry Ahmon Martin, 21, propositioned her sexually then proceeded to expose himself to her near the Visual Arts Building on KSU’s main campus.
KSU Police Chief Ed Stephens said, after a thorough investigation, officers from KSUPD were able to identify and locate the suspect using the description given by the victim together with footage from surveillance cameras around the university.
According to Stephens, Martin, who is not a KSU student, is charged with public indecency for the allegations against him.
Cobb County Detention Center’s records show that Martin, who is from Summerville, Georgia, was released from custody at Cobb County Jail on a $1,320 bond.
According to police, Martin has been issued a criminal trespass warning, meaning that he will be immediately arrested if he is seen on KSU’s campuses in the future.
The incident was posted to KSU’s Facebook page to inform students and staff of the report as officers responded to the scene and began searching for the perpetrator.
“Our text alert system is designed to alert the campus of imminent danger, such as a tornado, where the community is required to take immediate action,” Stephens said. “KSUPD will continue to patrol our campuses to provide a safe and secure community.”
According to KSUPD, students are reminded to use public well-lit walkways, lock their vehicles and residential doors at all times, refrain from propping open doors and report suspicious behavior to police.
