FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — An electrician who police say hid a video recording device resembling a pen in a Massachusetts preschool bathroom has been arrested.
The Sun Chronicle reports that 48-year-old Darin McNeil pleaded not guilty to wiretapping and attempting to commit a sexual surveillance wiretap.
McNeil had been working at the Learning Experience in Foxborough as a subcontractor for an energy efficiency company.
Police say a school employee found the device hidden in a hat in the employee restroom last Friday.

McNeil was free on $2,500 bail and has been ordered to stay away from the preschool.
A listed number for his Taunton home was not in service.
