On May 14, 2021, Benjamin Harrison was observed by staff at a Co-op store in Poynton leaning over and placing his phone under a teenage schoolgirl's skirt to take approximately four or five photos. He was wearing a Royal Mail uniform at the time. Staff noted his vehicle registration and reported him to the police. He was identified, arrested at his workplace, and admitted to the offense during his police interview, stating he had deleted the images. His phone was seized and analysed, confirming no images remained. The victim stated she was physically unharmed but found the act disgusting and a violation of her privacy.
