Two men arrested following spate of indecent exposures across Eastleigh

Officers investigating a series of incidents relating to indecent exposures in Eastleigh have arrested two men in connection with the incidents.

It is alleged that a man indecently exposed himself to a woman whilst at Leigh Road Recreational Ground in Eastleigh at around 11pm yesterday evening (4 August).

As a result, a 59-year-old man from Southampton has been arrested on suspicion of indecent exposure.

Following police enquiries into a number of similar exposure incidents on Wednesday 20 July, between 7.20pm and 9pm on Market Street and Nutbeem Road in Eastleigh, officers have identified and detained a separate man in relation to the incidents.

A 47-year-old man from Eastleigh has been arrested on suspicion of indecent exposure.

They both remain in custody at this time whilst police carry out further enquiries.

Whilst these incidents can be very distressing for those who witness them, we would urge people to continue to report any suspicious activity such as indecent exposures to police directly by calling 101, or via the Hampshire Constabulary website.
