A man has been arrested after reportedly being caught flashing in a park.

Officers were called after the man was seen acting indecently in Willesborough Recreation Ground, in Ashford.

When a member of the public challenged the man, he then left in the direction of Church Road.

He was described white, between 50 and 55, with brown hair and was said to be wearing a white t-shirt, dark blue jeans and black shoes, and carrying a blue carrier bag.

A 52-year-old man from Ashford was later arrested in connection with the incident, which took place at around 4.50pm on Saturday July 17, and he was then released pending further inquiries.

However, officers would like to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time and saw something, or who may have further information which might assist their investigation.
