Officers investigating an indecent exposure in Havant have arrested a man in connection with the incident.

We received reports that just before 5:30pm yesterday (Sunday 27 October), a 12 year-old boy and a 13 year-old boy saw a man exposing himself on the bridge that leads to Barncroft Way from the Hermitage stream area, near to Stockheath Lane. 

The boys were not physically hurt.

He remains in police custody at this time.
