A 61-year-old man, identified as Manuel Ramirez, was taken into custody during a Texas A&M football game after off-duty Bryan police officers observed him recording a woman without her permission near Section 338 of Kyle Field. Witnesses reported seeing him holding a device and aiming it at a woman in the crowd, prompting immediate intervention by the officers.
Arrest and Charges
Ramirez was found beside a handicap-accessible ramp, actively filming the woman when officers approached. The victim was promptly informed of the recording and chose to press charges, leading to Ramirez being booked into the Brazos County Jail on a charge of invasive visual recording, a state jail felony in Texas. Texas A&M University Police took over the investigation and seized his phone as evidence.
Although Ramirez was not a Texas A&M employee, he worked for SSC Services for Education, a third‑party custodial services provider. The company responded swiftly, terminating his employment immediately and issuing a statement condemning the conduct while emphasizing its commitment to safety and community standards.
