A 58-year-old man was arrested for sexual harassment on a campus bus at the Federal University of Pará in Belém, after an incident involving a student.
On a Tuesday afternoon, a man aged 58 was taken into custody at the Federal University of Pará (UFPA) in Belém for sexually harassing a 25-year-old student on a campus bus. The incident occurred when the man allegedly pressed his body against the woman from behind, creating a threatening and uncomfortable situation. The victim responded by confronting the man, at which point she realized he was in a state of sexual arousal, solidifying the nature of the harassment.
Following the encounter, the student left the bus near the Bettina Ferro Hospital stop and reported the incident to the university's security team.
