A Germantown man has been charged with assault for allegedly smelling a 10-year-old child’s bare feet at a Dave & Buster’s, Montgomery County Police said on Thursday.
Detectives suspect there may be additional victims.
The incident occurred about 10 p.m. on Sept. 24 in the arcade area of a Dave and Buster’s in the 8600 block of Colesville Road in downtown Silver Spring.
That’s where Christopher Michael Simpson, 30, allegedly took off the 10-year-old’s shoes and socks and sniffed the child’s feet before leaving, police said.
He is charged with second-degree assault and sexual assault-related offenses.
It was unclear on Thursday afternoon if Simpson had retained a lawyer.
Anyone with information, or who believes they may have been victimized by Simpson, is urged to contact the Montgomery County Police Department’s 3rd District Patrol Investigative Unit at 240-773-6870.
