Man Arrested in Falls Church-area Park

Police occasionally receive reports of indecent exposure in family-friendly parks across Fairfax County. Often, suspects flee and are not found when police arrive. But, on Sunday, February 8, police were able to apprehend a suspected offender.

Mason Patrol officers responded to an indecent exposure report at Munson Hill Park in the Falls Church area. A couple, along with their 16-month-old son, were enjoying the warm afternoon when a man walked by them, reportedly masturbating and looking at them as he walked. Officers responded, checked the park, and tracked down a man who fit the description. The victims positively identified the suspect; he was questioned and subsequently arrested. The 32-year-old Falls Church man was charged with felony exposure towards a child under age 15 and indecent exposure.
