UPDATED: CONCERN AS DOG WALKERS SPOT MAN MASTURBATING IN WOODLAND

Police have been alerted to an indecent exposure incident in which a male revealed himself and started masturbating in front of 2 women in amongst the woods at Parkhurst Forest earlier today (Tuesday). 

At around 13:30 this afternoon, in broad daylight, 2 female dog walkers were near to the Squirrel hide entrance within the forest when they caught sight of a male.

To their shock, the unidentified man had not only exposed his genitals, but then started to play with himself as he watched the women.

Article continues below this advertisement

The act is said to have been brazen and obvious to anyone who may have been passing.

A concerned reader has told Island Echo:

“He was in plain view. I’m worried about other women and kids too, seeing as they are off school”.

The male is described as being in his 20s with dark hair and a dark goatee. He had a red mountain bike with him.

Hampshire & Isle of Wight Constabulary has been made aware of the incident and are understood to be investigating.

Article continues below this advertisement

UPDATE WEDNESDAY – Police have confirmed that they are investigating the indecent exposure incident.

Enquiries are ongoing at this time.

Perhaps the police should request Island Echo provide them your IP so they can come around your house and see if you’re the pervert? Strange comment.

I showed your comment to a neighbour who went off on a rant about how ‘they’ may be non-binary and how wrong people are in referring to them as ‘men’. Really!

My neighbour started screaming at me, saying it was offensive to call them ‘man’, especially if they refer to themselves as ‘they/them’. What has this world become, eh? All this non-binary shit gets my head aching. I returned a comment to my neighbour, “Well, he is a tosser then”.

What next? The perpetrator is caught and tells the copper they are now female. No doubt a Nicola Sturgeon ‘Krankie’ individual will say, “We cannot hurt their feelings.”

When aliens arrive on earth or bodies are dug up in future they will be identified as male or female. People can choose whatever they want,can call themselves an elephant but fact of science and to others they is male/female !.
Going back to story,why did they not get phones out and film/photo for evidence?. Always a concern people can make things up to get others introuble . Next time let you’re dog chase him

Your comment has nothing to do with the story, other than to rile up transphobes and terfs. Get a life Stefan and leave trans people out of this.

Unfortunately trans people are a new target now because of the mainstream media, however, this story has nothing to do with gender or biological gender…

Well – he could indicate that he is identifying as a woodland creature these days and as animals engage in sexual activity in front of who ever is around, he is not breaking any laws, as he is a woodland creature and not a human.

of course he could also state that he had gone to the woods, where he was sure he wouldn’t be seen to “relieve himself” as he is homeless and doesn’t have a private place to do this sort of thing and these two women were invading his privacy and that it is akin to them staring through his front room window.

never can tell these days

Does it matter if they are local or not? I’m confused as to how being assaulted by a local vs. non-local makes any difference in the situation?

Because there are a certain contingent of posters on this site, “Searle” being a prime example, who try to blame all of their ills on foreigners.

He/she/it was deliberately lying.

What they don’t realise is that constantly trying to blame every incident on foreigners when they clearly aren’t actually damages their cause by highlighting the xenophobic loonies they actually are.

There are times when the justice system moves too slow, and the punishment for the crime is never good enough. On those occasions, a good old kicking from the general public would be better. This is one of those times….

Except they haven’t caught him. But once they do I am sure they will sentence him to “a good old kicking from the general public”. Stoning wold be better though. Tar and feathering is due a comeback as well. But if we are to let the punishment suit the crime, you can count me out 🙁
