Police in New Westminster, B.C. are searching for a man who reportedly exposed his genitals to several children at Glenbrook Middle School.
School staff phoned police shortly after 11 a.m. on Tuesday to report the indecent exposure to a group of students on the grounds.
“There were a number of witnesses who saw this incident and investigators will be looking to gather as much information as possible,” said Sgt. Sanjay Kumar in a news release.
“While these kinds of situations are not overly common, they are certainly alarming for anyone to witness.”
The suspect is described as a white man between 40 and 50 years old, about five-feet-six-inches tall. He has a medium build, balding dark hair, and wore a blue puffy jacket, dark blue jeans and black shoes.
