Man Accused of ‘Upskirting' Customer at Store Released Without Bail

Christopher Molina was caught at the Dollar Tree on Broadway

A man arrested in Malden, Massachusetts, Wednesday for 'upskirting' has been released on personal recognizance.

Authorities said Christopher Molina, 29, upskirted a customer at the Dollar Tree on Broadway at about 4:30 p.m.

The exact details of how Molina was caught are unclear.

'Upskirting' became illegal in Massachusetts back in march of 2014.

It was a swift change to state law that happened just two days after the Supreme Court ruled that Massachusetts' existing laws didn't specifically prohibit secretly taking pictures under a woman's clothing. 

The law makes 'upskirting' a misdemeanor.

Molina was ordered to stay away from the victim, witness and the store.
