COMMUNITY ALERT FROM PCSO:

There have been at least two incidents where elementary aged girls have been followed or chased by an adult male described as white or Hispanic male, 5'8" 200 pounds, bald, with a beard. A possible vehicle is a white Chevrolet sedan. These incidents took place near the canal area in the neighborhood off of E. Paso Fino Way and N. Caspian Way.

A third and possibly related incident involves a similarly described suspect who exposed himself to a 12-year-old girl this morning near Desert Willow Blvd. and Thisle Trail. The victim in this case said the man may have gotten out of a white Chevrolet sedan parked along the street.
