ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. — A Brentwood Promenade security guard is accused of assaulting two women by fondling their feet and then punching an officer as he tried to flee.
The Brentwood Police Department said Mario Gullette, who is charged with resisting arrest and three counts of assault, may have victimized other women. They're asking anyone who was a victim or who has any information to come forward.
According to court documents, two women contacted police Tuesday afternoon to report the assault. They said Gullette, dressed in his security guard uniform, first approached them and began talking about their shoes, which led to him eventually "fondling and kissing" the women's feet.
During his arrest, he punched an officer in the face while trying to flee. Other officers captured him after a brief foot chase.
The officer was bleeding from her nose and was treated and released at a nearby hospital.
In an interview, Gullette "admitted he likes feet," police said.
Gullette was being held at the St. Louis County Jail on $50,000 cash only bond.
Anyone with information or who may have been a victim is asked to contact Brentwood police at 314-644-7100.
