Police: Man wanted on lewdness charges arrested for committing crude act on Red Line train
Authorities arrested a Cambridge man Monday morning after he allegedly performed multiple lewd acts in front of women on MBTA trains.
23-year-old Calebre Predelus was charged with open and gross lewdness.
Officers responding to a Red Line train travelling from JFK-UMass to Quincy Center Station found a woman who said Predelus carried out a lewd act in front of her, laughing as he did so, according to Transit Police. The victim was able to snap a picture of Predelus and gave it to detectives, who immediately began investigating and stopped the train at Quincy Center Station.
Police found Predelus a short time later within the train car and took him into custody. He will appear in court at a later date.
Transit officials say Predelus was sought by detectives for committing similar crude acts in February.
