Police hunt for the Vale flasher

A FLASHER has indecently exposed himself to two teenage girls in Broadway as they cycled near a disused railway bridge.

The man, aged between 45 and 60-years-old, did not speak during the incident along Childswickham Road at around 7.40pm on Monday. His is described as 'podgy' with a 'beer belly', grey/black balding hair and between 5ft 6ins and 5ft 8ins tall. He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, shiny black shorts and dark sunglasses.

Police are also keen to trace a small white car, possibly an Austin Metro or Vauxhall Nova, with 'go faster' stripes along the side, which they believe the man was driving. They are also urging other people who have experienced a similar unreported incident to come forward.

Spokesman Richard Bull said: "We are keen to here from anyone who can help identify this man or the vehicle. Additionally there may be other similar incidents that have not been reported to us. We would urge anyone who has experienced anything similar to contact us with what would be extremely helpful information." Anyone who recognised the man's description or saw anything suspicious in Childswickham Road should call 08457 444888.
