Greenwood police: Man holding gun exposed himself to kids
GREENWOOD, Ind. (WISH) – Police in Greenwood are searching for a man who they say exposed himself to children this week while pointing a gun.
According to police, it happened on Dresden Drive around 4 p.m. Tuesday. This is off of Main Street, just east of the Interstate 65 exit.
A resident told police that her 7-year-old son was playing outside unsupervised with two other kids, ages 7 and 9, when a man pacing back and forth along the sidewalk pulled out a handgun and pointed it to the ground before pulling down his pants, according to a police report.
One child told police that the man walked out from between two apartment buildings and onto the sidewalk. He was wearing a backwards hat, glasses, a blue shirt, brown shorts, and is believed to be a white male in his 20s or 30s. He drove off in a silver car after the incident, 24-Hour News 8’s news partners at The Daily Journal report.
