Meteghan RCMP has released a sketch of a suspect following a call from the public about a man indecently exposing himself to a young girl a few weeks ago.
On April 10, a 16-year-old girl was followed as she was walking along Hwy. 1 by a man who was driving a black two-door car. The car was an older model, and is thought to be either a Pontiac Sunfire or Chevrolet Cavalier. The man got out of his vehicle near the baseball field in Grosses Coques and hid behind some nearby mail boxes while watching the girl as she walked. The man lowered his pants and grabbed his genitals while watching the girl walk away.
An RCMP sketch artist completed a sketch of the suspect, to assist in identifying the person involved. The suspect is described as white, in his late twenties or early thirties, and at least 5-foot-8 with a thin build. He was wearing a dark blue jacket with a red baseball cap and blue jeans.
