Man arrested for airdropping naked photos to strangers
TULSA, Okla. (KTUL) — Tulsa Police Department reported Thursday a recent arrest of a man for digital indecent exposure.
According to Tulsa police, on May 1, around 4 p.m., officers responded to a call from an apartment complex near 71st and Sheridan for a report of indecent exposure.
The employees of the apartment complex said the suspect, identified as Staijeck Helm, arrived at the complex to apply for an apartment.
While Helm was sitting at the computer filling out an application, employees told officers they received two AirDrop notifications where another iPhone was attempting to send photos.
Employees said they were curious about the contents and accepted the AirDrop requests. They told TPD the AirDrop photos they received were of Helm naked in front of a mirror and photos of his genitals.
Helm was then arrested for indecent exposure and was officially charged on May 5.
Tulsa police said they recommend iPhone users adjust their AirDrop settings to only receive AirDrops from 'Contacts Only'.
