A man told police he was showering in an individual stall at LA Fitness, located at 1540 State Road 436, when he noticed a small black shower bag placed on the dividing shower wall with a small hole in it facing towards him.

When police searched the bag, which Phutham had attempted to hide in a bathroom trash can, they said it appeared to have a phone case glued inside of it so that the camera of an iPhone would perfectly line up with the hole in the bag.
