A man accused of grabbing women’s buttocks at a DeKalb County Target store has been arrested, police said Friday.

But investigators believe there could be additional victims, Officer Tim Fecht with Dunwoody police said.

Between noon and 3 p.m. Thursday, Target security workers were alerted to a man following women around the store, located at 100 Perimeter Center Place, and using his open palm to make contact with the victims’ buttocks, Fecht said. The man was described as a tall, black man with a slim build who was wearing blue jeans and a dark-colored, hooded sweatshirt, according to police.

One victim reported the incident to police, who identified and arrested the suspect, Fecht said. The suspect’s name was not released. Store surveillance cameras captured at least one of the incidents, police said.

Other victims or anyone with information on the case is asked to contact Detective W. Blake Yeargin with the Dunwoody Police Department at 678-382-6916 or by email at william.yeargin@dunwoodyga.gov.
