Man exposed himself to a woman and chased a man

Police are appealing for witnesses to an indecent exposure incident that occurred on 24 March, 2023, near Dolphin House on Southampton High Street.

The man exposed himself three times to a woman and chased an unknown man, believed to be a flower seller, at around 3:15pm.

A 25 year old man of no fixed abode was arrested on suspicion of outraging public decency and has been released on police bail. However, the police are now turning to the public for any information that may assist their investigation.

Officers are keen to speak with the man who was chased by the suspect, as he may have phone footage that could help the investigation. Police are also looking for mobile phone or CCTV footage from anyone who was in the area at the time.

Anyone with information is asked to call 101 or submit information via the police website, quoting reference number 44230117585. Alternatively, they can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

The police take reports of indecent exposure very seriously and will be doing everything possible to ensure that those responsible are brought to justice.
