A scuffle broke out between a Kroger pharmacist and two customers after a woman caught him trying to take cell phone pictures under her skirt while she waited in a checkout line, police told Channel 2 Action News.

Police responded to the woman’s complaint at the Peachtree Industrial Boulevard store around 6:30 p.m. on Sunday. She said Timothy Keith Colgrove, a supervising pharmacist at the Kroger, was squatting next to her using his cell phone to take a photo or video under her skirt, Gwinnett police told Channel 2 News.

According to the report, she confronted him and reached for the phone causing him to fall back and the two scuffled before she was able to grab the phone with the help of another customer. She told authorities Colgrove was trying to delete the photos. She turned over the phone to police.

Colgrove was charged with felony eavesdropping and released early Monday on $5,700 bond, the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Police told Channel 2 that Kroger released a statement saying Colgrove is on leave.
