Series of indecency incidents in Leeds

    Detectives are appealing for information over a series of public indecency incidents in Leeds earlier this year. 

    Officers have been carrying out extensive enquiries into the four incidents which all happened on St Mark’s Road, Woodhouse, in February and March and which are now believed to involve the same suspect. 

    On the last three occasions the suspect has approached lone women in the street and spoken to them before exposing himself and committing a lewd act. In the first incident he was seen by a man loitering on a grassed area and was thought to be committing a lewd act under his coat. 

    The incidents occurred roughly between 8pm and 9pm on Thursday 16 February, two times on Wednesday 22 February, and again on Friday 24 March.

    The suspect is described as Asian or possibly mixed race, aged in his late teens to early twenties, with dark hair, and was wearing a long dark-coloured coat.
