Police Search For Flasher In Ferndale

FERNDALE (WWJ) - Police are looking for a man who exposed himself to a woman who was sitting in a car outside her home in Ferndale.

Investigators say the incident happened around 1:25 a.m. last Thursday at a home near Romeo and Orchard roads.

The 28-year-old woman told police that she was sitting in her vehicle, talking on her cellphone when the man knocked on her car window. She turned to look, only to see the man had his penis exposed and was masturbating, police said.

The woman said she honked her horn and yelled at the man, who fled northbound on Romeo before heading westbound on Breckenridge.

Officers checked the area, but didn't locate the man.

The suspect is described as a white male, possibly of Italian descent, about 5'10" and 155 lbs with dark hair, dark eyes, a mustache and stubble on his face. He was wearing dark clothing at the time of the incident.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Ferndale police at 248-541-3650.
