Default Heading H1
A man has been charged following a disturbing incident of alleged indecent exposure on Hove beach that left witnesses shocked on a busy summer afternoon.
Lee Mutoro, 36, of no fixed address, has been formally charged with indecent exposure and is currently in custody. He is due to appear before Brighton Magistrates’ Court on 11 August.
A police spokesperson said: “We take incidents like this extremely seriously and are working to establish the full circumstances. If you were in the area and saw what happened, or have any relevant footage or information, we urge you to come forward as soon as possible.”
Those with information that could assist the investigation are asked to report it online or call 101, quoting serial 830 of 21/06.
The beach area around Brunswick Terrace is popular with families, tourists, and locals alike, and the incident has prompted concerns about safety and appropriate policing along the seafront.
This is a developing story, and further updates are expected following Mutoro’s court appearance in August.
