POLICE are hunting a man who indecently exposed himself to three young girls in Boscombe on Sunday August 18.

The incident happened at around 6pm in the park area near to the Shelley Manor Medical Centre on Beechwood Avenue.

The victims, three 13-year-old girls from the Bournemouth area, were approached by an unknown man riding a pedal cycle who circled them numerous times while exposing himself.

The offender then headed off in the direction of Christchurch Road.

He was white, aged in his early 20s, with ginger hair and freckles. He was wearing a black sports t-shirt with gold writing on the front, dark blue jeans and riding a black, silver and blue mountain bike.

PC Lewis Bailey, of Bournemouth police, said: “This has been quite an ordeal for the three teenage girls and they have been left very scared and upset.

“I would ask witnesses and anyone with information about the incident to come forward as they might be able to assist with the investigation.”

Witnesses should call Dorset Police on 101, quoting incident number 18:428, or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
