There is an arrest in the Erin Andrews peep-hole video case. This is breaking now, so here is the story below
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A man has been arrested in Chicago on federal charges of stalking an ESPN reporter, taking nude videos of her in a hotel room surreptitiously and posting the videos online after trying to sell them to celebrity Web site TMZ.com.
FBI officials in Los Angeles, where the charges were filed, say 48-year-old Michael Barrett of Westmont, Ill. was arrested at O’Hare Airport Friday night.
Barrett is charged with interstate stalking to harass, intimidate and cause emotional distress to the victim, ESPN reporter Erin Andrews, who was identified in the complaint as E.A.
The videos were taken through a modified peephole while Andrews was undressed in hotel rooms in Nashville, Tenn. and Milwaukee, Wisc. in 2008.
Barrett is accused of trying to sell the videos to TMZ.com, which told Andrews’ attorneys.
