Police are patrolling Diamond Park area, Birchwood, Lincoln, after reports of a man exposing himself.
We’ve received a report that a man was seen exposing himself in Diamond Park, a play park on Staverton Crescent, Lincoln. The incident is reported to have happened around 6pm on Wednesday 15 July. The man is described as white, around 6ft tall and of medium build, wearing a hoodie with the hood up and black joggers.
A second report has been made that the same man was seen again on Saturday 18 July around 4.10pm in the same area. This time the man did not commit any offences.
Sgt Samantha Wootton, Neighbourhood Policing for South Lincoln, said: “These reports have come from young children who were understandably extremely upset by what they have seen.
“We have stepped up patrols in the area and ask that anyone who sees anything suspicious or that concerns them to get in touch. It’s helpful to have good descriptions if that is possible. I’ve heard that people feel they wish to try and seek this man out themselves; I ask that this does not happen, it isn’t helpful, can put members of our community at risk and equally may potentially compromise police enquiries.
“Anyone who has any information in relation to this offence or any other concerns are asked to report on line https://www.lincs.police.uk/ro/report/by or by calling 101 or by contacting the independent charity CrimeStoppers on 0800 555111 or online at https://crimestoppers-uk.org/ |
