Man indecently exposes himself to boy in Wellington

The incident occurred at approximately 4.30pm on Friday 23rd October in Bowring Park.

A West Mercia Police spokesperson said: "The man was seen in the bushes, hitting a stick against the ground to attract attention whilst committing a lewd act. The victim was unable to give a description of the offender.

"A number of enquiries are ongoing to trace the man and there are additional police patrols in the area."

Police are urging anyone who may have been in the park at the time, and who may have seen anyone acting suspiciously, to contact police by calling 101 quoting incident number 675 of 23rd October.
