Indecent Exposure Outside Library

A man exposed himself to a woman sitting in her car outside Central Rappahannock Regional Library's main branch early Thursday morning, Natatia Bledsoe, Fredericksburg Police Department spokesperson, said.

The 23-year-old female said she was sitting in her vehicle parked on Caroline Street in front of the library in order to access the WiFi for schoolwork. At about 1:10 a.m. a male subject approached her car, Bledsoe said.

The unknown subject walked up and down the sidewalk near her vehicle,  stopped in front of her passenger side headlight and committed an obscene act while exposing himself, Bledsoe said.

The suspect walked away as the victim was on the phone with police.

The suspect was described as a black male between 35 and 45 years old, of average height and with acne scars on his face. He was wearing baggy blue jeans, a navy blue hoodie with a front zipper and a dark colored ball cap which he wore turned backwards, Bledsoe said.

The investigation is ongoing.
