Arrest made in indecent acts

Police responded to a complaint of an indecent act that occurred on Pepperell Street at Preston Street at 7:30 p.m., Friday evening.

The female victim observed a male person expose his genital area and commit an indecent act in her presence. The male left and entered a vehicle. The victim was able to give a description of the male, his car and licence plate to police.

Halifax Regional Police Patrol members were able to locate the vehicle and arrested a 26 year old male resident of Bedford, without incident.

Investigators of the Halifax Regional Police/RCMP Integrated General Investigation Section interviewed the male suspect. The suspect will be charged for this incident as well as six other indecent acts of a similar nature that occurred during the month of March. These other incidents all occurred in the south end of Halifax.

The 26 years old male will face charges for these seven indecent acts contrary to section 175 of the Criminal Code of Canada. He will be released to attend a later court date.
