Police have charged the actor Gary Busey with three counts of sex crimes that they said took place when he allegedly groped at least two victims during Monster-Mania Con in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, earlier this month, authorities said Saturday.
Police in Cherry Hill said the 78-year-old Busey, who lives in Malibu, California, outside Los Angeles, was charged Friday with two counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual contact and a single count of attempted criminal sexual contact. He was also charged with harassment.
Cherry Hill Township Police Lt. Robert Scheunemann said: “It was about contact. It was about touching.” Police said they had received “multiple complaints” about Busey’s conduct.
