Man’s exposure charges pending

Charges are pending for a Bloomington man who allegedly exposed himself to a woman near First and Washington streets on Wednesday.

Bloomington Police Department Officer Jill Acres was dispatched to the area at about 12:43 p.m., said BPD Sgt. Jeff Canada, reading from a police report.

The victim, a 24-year-old woman, said she was walking south on Washington Street when she looked up and saw a man walking toward her. She noticed the man was walking with his pants down, fully exposing himself, Canada said.

BPD Sgt. Scott Oldham arrived in the area, and he and the victim identified the subject at the corner of Second and Washington streets. The subject was also carrying his belt in his right-hand coat pocket, Canada said. When police asked the man if he’d exposed himself, he replied he was only tucking in his shirt and did not recall exposing himself.
