According to an arrest report, officers responded to the mall Wednesday after receiving a report about a man who was exposing himself.
Police said a responding officer spotted Keyshawn Terrell Massillon, 20, of Oakland Park, with his pants down, but his shirt covering his genitals.
The officer attempted to detain Massillon, but Massillon tensed up and then ran away from the officer, authorities said.
Police said the officer deployed his Taser, but it failed.
According to the report, Massillon entered the mall through the food court and then ran through Dillard’s before being apprehended outside the store.
Police said Massillon claimed that he didn’t do anything wrong except for running from an officer.
According to the report, the victim told officers that she saw Massillon outside the food court and thought he was a salesman as he was holding a book.
She said she went shopping for about 30 minutes and then exited the mall again and saw Massillon with his pants lowered to about mid-thigh, exposing his penis while masturbating and looking in her direction.
Police said the woman walked away and called 911 before she started recording him.
According to the report, at the time of his arrest, Massillon had four active felony warrants out of the Broward Sheriff’s Office for two charges of exposure of sexual organs and two violations of probation.
He now faces additional charges of exposure of sexual organs, probation violation and obstruction without violence.
As of Friday morning, Massillon was no longer appearing in the online jail database.
