A man has been arrested following a series of indecent exposure incidents at a supermarket in Mansfield.
Officers were called to Chesterfield Road South at 2.27pm on 25 July following reports of a man exposing himself to women.
It is alleged that the suspect would wait near the supermarket’s toilets before approaching lone women and exposing himself.
Following a review of CCTV footage, a 72-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of 14 counts of indecent exposure.
He has since been released on conditional bail pending further enquiries.
PSI Claire Celino, of Nottinghamshire Police, said:
