Man indecently exposes himself in Ledbury

Police in North Herefordshire are appealing for witnesses after a man indecently exposed himself in Ledbury late on Saturday afternoon.

At around 6.10pm on Saturday 7 October a man began masturbating when a woman walked past him on a bridleway near the Bullins.  The approximate location is shown in the map below.

The man is described as white, with no trousers, wearing a white t-shirt and possibly a bobble hat.  He was carrying one red plastic bag and one blue plastic bag. 

PC Steven Blake, said: “This is obviously a very worrying incident and we’d like the public to help us to identify this man.

“This area is popular with dog walkers and it’s possible that this isn’t the first time the man has exposed himself.

“We’d urge anyone who may have been the victim of similar incidents, or who recognises the description of the man, to please come forward.

“I’d also like to reassure the community that we are taking this incident very seriously and are doing all we can to identify this man.”
