Police are hunting a serial flasher who exposed himself and performed a lewd act in front of a toddler in western Sydney.
The man is believed to be linked to two separate incidents at parks near Blacktown this week where he performed lewd acts in public.
Police say a 26-year-old woman, her 56-year-old mother and a toddler were walking at William Lawson Park in Prospect just before 1pm on Wednesday when a man followed them.
The woman turned about when the man is said to have performed a lewd act.
An hour later, police received another report at nearby Timbertop Reserve that a person matching the man’s description had also exposed himself and performed a lewd act.
On Thursday, a man walking his dog at Timbertop Reserve advised police that a person matching the man’s description had been acting suspiciously in the park at about 12pm.
After the man sighted the dog walker, he reportedly walked quickly back to a white SUV in nearby Ollier Cres.
The police dog squad was called in to track the man, however, he was not found.
Police described the man as being 35 to 40 years of age, about 165-175cm, with an olive complexion and short dark curly hair.
In the first incident, he was seen wearing dark pants and a dark jacket with a fluorescent strip.
In the second incident, he was wearing a hi-vis navy blue and yellow jumper, dark pants, a cap, long football socks and thongs.
