SPRING, Texas — A registered sex offender was taken into custody Friday after deputies said he pulled down a woman's shorts in a gym parking lot in Spring.
The suspect was identified as Baloch Yousef. He was arrested and charged with indecent assault. Officials said his bond was set at $100.
The incident happened Sept. 16 at about 8:20 a.m. at the Planet Fitness on Kuykendahl Road near FM 2920.
Summer Day told deputies she just arrived at the gym and was getting out of her car when she noticed Yousef walking toward her. She said she tried to avoid him but he grabbed her and put both of his hands on the waist of her shorts and began pulling them off.
Day fought Yousef off of her and said she took out her cellphone and got video of him as he ran away.
After that, she ran inside the gym and called 911.
When she showed deputies the cellphone video, they said they immediately recognized the man as Yousef, who is a registered sex offender in the Spring area.
Yousef has spent five years in prison for injury to a child and compelling prostitution of a 14-year-old girl.
