Dorset Police received a report at around 11.30pm on Thursday 11 August 2022 that a woman was being followed by a man in Ringwood Road in the Newtown area. She reported that the man was exposing himself and performing an indecent act.
Officers attended and as they were carrying out enquiries in the area, they spoke to another woman who reported that she had also seen a man performing an indecent act outside her window.
