Search after man exposes himself twice
Monday 1st March 2010, 7:00PM GMT.
A man on a bicycle is believed to have exposed himself to women on two separate occasions in Shrewsbury. Police today issued an appeal for information about the two incidents.
They happened in the Belle Vue area of town.
Police believe they both involve the same man.
The first incident happened on January 16 but was not reported to police until the second incident occurred on Thursday last week.
The offender, a white man aged in his mid to late 20s, was riding a dark bicycle and was wearing dark clothing on each occasion.
Constable Ben Oakley, who is investigating the incidents, appealed for anyone who might have seen the man or who has any information as to his identity to contact police.
The first incident happened between about 6.30pm and 7pm while the victim was using the telephone kiosk opposite the Boar’s Head pub, at the junction of Belle Vue Road and Betton Street.
On the second occasion, which happened between about 7.10pm and 7.20pm, the victim was walking along Longden Road bet-ween the junctions for Arbourne Gardens and South Hermitage.
Mr Oakley said: “He is described as between about 5ft 7in and 5ft 9in and of medium build.
“He was wearing a dark woollen hat, dark jumper and jogging bottoms and had a scarf around the lower part of his face.”
Mr Oakley said information could be passed on to Shrewsbury police on 0300 333 3000 or via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
