Police are appealing for witnesses after a man on a white mountain bike exposed himself to teenage girls in a park in Swindon.

At around 6pm on November 26, the two 16-year-old girls were sitting on the swings when they noticed the man indecently exposing himself at the other end of the park. The girls walked away and the man attempted to follow them but they shouted at him to leave them alone and he left.

The man was riding a white mountain bike that he had to lift over a fence to enter and leave the park. He was described as a white male in his 40s, 5ft 10ins to 6ft tall, of slim build wearing dark clothing.

This is Wiltshire reports that PC Chris Hughes, who is investigating the incident, said: “These young women were left very scared after this incident and I am keen to hear from anyone who may have seen this man in the area at the time, or who may know who he is.

“Residents of Savernake Street may have seen him acting suspiciously and although it was dark at the time, the girls were able to see his white mountain bike which they saw him lifting over the fence.”
