Denville music teacher accused of bus stop lewdness

DENVILLE -- Police have arrested and charged a part-time music teacher at Morris Catholic High School with lewdness after he was caught apparently masturbating while watching children at a bus stop.

Officers took 33-year-old John Watson, of North Brunswick, into custody after several people apparently saw the act in progress on Tuesday.

According to authorities, Watson has done this at least three other times. He resigned after his arrest.

Officials say his criminal background check came back clean prior to his employment.
