Cops in Ocean City are trying to identify whoever hid multiple pen-shaped spy cameras in bathrooms up and down the boardwalk.

Tourists visiting the area Thursday happened upon one of the hidden cameras, according to Philadelphia’s WPVI.

The recording device was found hidden behind a trash can, on the floor of a family bathroom.

The tourists initially mistook the camera for a pen, and picked it up.

But after unscrewing it, they realized there was no ink cartridge.

Instead, there was a charging port and an SD card.

Police said they do not yet know how long the cameras have been in the bathrooms, or who left them there.

They are also attempting to work out how many potential victims there may be.

Anyone with pertinent information is asked to call the Ocean City Police.
