Police Investigating Man Exposing Himself In Gainesville

The University of Florida Police Department is investigating three flashings that took place in the stairwell of the parking garage near the college's Norman Hall.

The most recent one happened Wednesday, and the suspect was last seen wearing a gray tank top, gray shorts and a chain necklace.

University police and the Gainesville Police Department are working together to investigate six incidents of flashings, first reported in December 2015, separate from the three at UF but done by a similarly described suspect. Those six happened between the 1300 block of Northwest Third Avenue in Gainesville to the 1100 block of Northwest 23rd Avenue.

The suspect is described as a middle-aged black male, standing at about 5’10 with short hair.
