Teen Creeps Expose Themselves to Girls Under 13
A disturbing predator is targeting young girls under 13, exposing himself in two separate incidents. Police describe the suspect as Asian, around 15 years old, standing between 5ft 2ins and 5ft 4ins tall, with black wavy or curly hair.
First Attack on New Year’s Eve
The first terrifying episode happened on 31 December 2020 at about 5pm. A girl was approached by the teen, who first exposed himself before attempting to sexually assault her. The victim screamed, sending the attacker fleeing the scene.
He was last seen wearing a brown or black padded jacket, black trousers, and black shoes.
Second Incident Two Months Later
On 2 March, just after 4pm, the same suspect apparently struck again. This time, he exposed himself and performed a lewd act in front of two girls.
During this incident, the male wore a black hooded top with a white circle on the shoulder and white drawstrings, paired with grey tracksuit bottoms.
Police Urge Locals to Stay Vigilant
Detectives from Central South Safeguarding are treating the cases as linked and are supporting the victims and their families with specially trained officers.
Detective Inspector Richard Poynter said: “I understand that incidents of this nature are both shocking and concerning for the local community. I want to reassure local residents that since these two offences were reported to us we have increased uniformed patrols in and around the park.”
“If you have any information about who this person could be it is imperative that you get in touch with us as soon as possible. Likewise if you have observed a young man acting suspiciously in the park matching the description given, please make contact.”
If you can help, call police on 101 or tweet @MetCC quoting reference CAD 5015 of 2 March.
