Flasher strikes twice in woodland near Kettering

Police are hunting a flasher who struck twice in a village near Kettering earlier this month.

Officers believe the same man indecently exposed himself to members of the public in the wooded area of Church Way in Thorpe Malsor — first on November 9 at about 11am and then last Tuesday (November 24) at about 9.20am.

A Northamptonshire Police spokesman said: "The person we would like to talk to is a white, middle-aged male, about 5ft 8in and of an average or maybe slim build. He was wearing a distinctive black bobble hat, a black bodywarmer and black leggings."

Anyone with information which could help the police with their investigation can call 101 using incident number 2000623613 or ring Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
