A suspect in an indecent-exposure incident is being sought by the Benton County Sheriff’s Department.
The man is described as a white male in his late 40s with dark brown hair, possibly driving an early 2000s model of a Chevy Suburban, harvest-gold in color.
According to a press release from the Benton County Sheriff’s Department, this is what happened at about 7:30 a.m. Oct. 18:
A woman was driving westbound at about that time on 65th Avenue NE at the intersection of 55th Avenue NE in Mayhew Lake Township. The woman observed a vehicle stopped on the side of the road. She reported as she drove past the man, she saw the man’s pants had been lowered and he was lifting his shirt to expose his genitals to her.
