Original caption

A man dubbed the serial "butt-sniffer" is back behind bars after police say he was caught targeting shoppers in California again. Police say 39-year-old Calese Crowder was seen crouching down and getting close to women to allegedly smell them at two different stores before officers tracked him down. He's now being held without bail on suspicion of violating his parole. Crowder is a registered sex offender with a string of similar arrests in Glendale and Burbank, California dating back to 2021, including a viral 2023 incident at a Barnes & Noble that was caught on camera.
