Cops crawled up the ass again of an alleged serial butt sniffer … this time the weirdo was up to his old antics at a clothing store when he got busted!

Police in Burbank, California say officers arrested 38-year-old Calese Carron Crowder this week after surveillance footage allegedly showed him engaging in “lewd behavior by inappropriately sniffing” a woman’s butt.

Cops say they got a report Tuesday of a suspicious man loitering in the women’s department at the Nordstrom Rack in the Empire Center shopping center … and when they arrived, officers looked at store video and saw Crowder following a woman around, crouching behind her and taking a whiff of her derriere.

BPD says Crowder had left Nordstrom by the time they got there, but they tracked the guy down at a Walmart in the same shopping center … and arrested him.

It all sounds oddly familiar to a viral video from 2023 … when a woman recorded Crowder following her around a Barnes & Noble and allegedly sniffing her butt.

Crowder’s got a long rap sheet … and cops say he is a registered sex offender who was on active parole at the time of this latest arrest.
