SALISBURY — A registered sex offender was charged on New Year’s Day with watching a girl use the bathroom in Bell Tower Green Park’s bathrooms.

Willie Bernard Donaldson, a 57-year-old Salisbury resident, faces a single charge of secretly peeping into a room occupied by a female.

Sgt. Russ DeSantis of the Salisbury Police Department said a 14-year-old girl went into the bathroom at Bell Tower Green Park and saw Donaldson in the stall next to her looking over the wall. The incident occurred about 15 minutes after midnight on Saturday after the city’s New Year’s Eve celebration in the park.

Donaldson received a $1,500 bond and was booked into the Rowan County Detention Center, where he remained on Monday.

State records show Donaldson was convicted in 2005 of attempted rape in Mecklenburg County — a charge for which he was required to register as a sex offender.
