Halifax police have arrested a 24-year-old man accused of exposing himself and grabbing a woman working at a store.

They say the man asked for help while he was trying on clothes at the shop in Dartmouth on May 18th.

When the employee opened the door, police say he exposed himself and put his hand on the women’s shoulder.

They say she ran to the front of the store, followed by the man who left after speaking briefly to other employees.

He is to appear in court in July.
