UPDATE: Man Who Exposed Himself at Common Grounds Still Hasn't Been Located (PHOTO)
The man, who had been masturbating in the coffee shop, was there for about 45 minutes. It's been two weeks, but so far he has not been identified.
UPDATE: It's been two weeks since we ran this story about a man who exposed himself at Common Grounds Coffee Shop. A witness snapped this photo, which gives a pretty clear look at the man's face (and a whole lot more, but we blocked that part out for you).
Considering the clarity of the photo and the fact that the man was sitting in the coffee shop for 45 minutes, we asked Police Lt. Paul Doroshov if any progress had made in the effort to find the man.
"No nothing concrete," he told me in an email. "We have had some calls but none panned out."

Police were called, but the man was gone by the time they arrived. The man, who was masturbating in the coffee shop, had been there for about 45 minutes, according to the witness who took the photo.
Note: An earlier version of this story quoted a newspaper article that said the man had been "masturbating for 45 minutes." That was a miscommunication, which is why we changed the wording in the above paragraph and removed the quote.
