Prince George - RCMP are requesting assistance in locating a male exposing himself.
The Prince George RCMP have received four complaints with a disturbing common theme.
In three of the reports, an adult male approaches one or two females in a pick-up truck and exposes his penis after opening the driver side door. In the fourth file, the male does not expose himself, but approached the victim. The victims, who range in age from 10 to 18 years old, all fled the locations with no further incident.
The description of the male is similar in every investigation. A Caucasian male with short brown hair and a long brown goatee. In each case the male was wearing blue jeans, but different coloured shirts.
The four incidents occurred between noon and 6:00 PM along the 2500 block of Victoria
Street, on 8th Avenue near Winnipeg Street, the 2600 block of Pine Street and Johnson Street near 12th Avenue.
The vehicle has been described as a dark coloured pick-up truck, possibly black, blue or burgundy.
The pick-up may be an extended cab or 4 door.
"We realize that these descriptions are vague, but the safety of the public is of overriding importance in this investigation, therefore we felt in necessary to notify the public no matter how vague the description" - Corporal Craig Douglass, Prince George Detachment Media Liaison Officer says.
The Prince George RCMP would like to remind the public, in particular parents and young females, to take extra precautions when walking on residential streets. Whenever possible, never walk alone, take well traveled routes with lots of traffic and be aware of your surroundings, including where you can run for help.
"The Prince George RCMP are treating this investigation seriously and will use all available resources to locate, identify and arrest the person responsible for these disgusting acts" says Corporal Craig Douglass, Prince George Detachment Media Liaison Officer.
