Campers told a coordinator that Ronald McCall made them feel uncomfortable, according to the Hudson County Prosecutor's Office, which investigated along with Bayonne police. Two of the campers, girls aged 11 and 12, also said McCall pressed against them as they waited on line at the concession stand.

McCall was handed an additional charge later that afternoon, when he allegedly became upset with detectives trying to help him after he requested medical attention while at the prosecutor's office in Jersey City. McCall, who was taken to Jersey City Medical Center, was also charged with making terroristic threats.

Following his treatment he was held at the Hudson County jail. He is scheduled to make an initial court appearance Wednesday.
