Police hunt man who indecently exposed himself in front of Wirral schoolgirls.
A MAN indecently exposed himself in front of two Wirral girls as they walked home from school.
The teenagers were in Claremont Road in Wallasey when a car pulled alongside them and the driver sounded the horn.
When the girls looked they saw the driver exposing himself. He then drove off along Claremont Road towards Grove Road.
The pair ran home and told an adult, who then called police.
No words were exchange and no physical contact occurred however both teenagers were left shocked and upset.
Police have released an e-fit of man wanted in connection with the incident, which happened at around 3.20pm, on Tuesday, December 11,
He is in his late 30s, of average build, with long, dark untidy hair, a pale complexion and wearing black-rimmed glasses. He was driving a small, silver car.
Detective Sergeant Judith Parkinson from Birkenhead CID said: "This was an unsettling experience for these two girls and understandably they have been left shocked by what they saw.
"They have been incredibly brave and helpful when speaking to us and, as a result, we have an e-fit of the suspect.
"I would like to reassure local people that this appears to be an isolated incident but to look at this image and call us if they think they know who it is.
“Any information, however small, could be important to our investigation."
Call Birkenhead CID on 0151 777 2265 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
As much as i completely 100% agree with label you gave the offender, I wasn't expecting to see that type of language as a thread title used on here, where young people visit...

I have never seen nonce as a swear word, it's always meant a sex offender (apart from its real meaning, which is immaterial here)' which a flasher surely is (even if the person is psychologically challenged, it's still a sexual offence).
Most people recognise it as old prison slang, anyone on "rule" or "numbers" (Rule 45, segregated from other prisoners due to nature of their offence) was called a NONCE due to the acronym on their cell card N.O.N.C.E. (Not On Normal Courtyard Exercise), meaning that they didn't get unlocked with everybody else for the 1hr a day walking around the yard.
This was many years ago before prisoners on "rule" were kept on a different "wings" in the jail so the cards were an identifier to the Prison Officer who was unlocking them.
I never knew the derivation of the word NONCE. Thanks Dr.
One puzzling thing is why the long delay in telling the public about this guy and the offence he committed. Surely it would be in everyone's interests that this was made public at the earliest possible opportunity. A better chance of catching the barsteward before he goes to ground ??

I was under the impression that the minimum age for members was 18. I'm sure Mark can confirm or refute my impression. Vaguely remember having issues with a member who had lied about their age when they signed up and was under 18
Sometimes Police Officers give more than just speeding tickets!

I remember well an incident when we live in Colwyn Bay. The girlfriend of my son used to hang round our house with a number of other girls, all around 14, came rushing in one evening. "There's a flasher in the woods". Never mind we said, "just stay out of the way until they catch him". "It's not that" she said," were all going to have a look at him". With that all the girls in the house ran off and into the woods to look for said flasher. They never did find him!

You actually stood back and allowed them to run off into the woods looking for a pervert? Did you call the police? We're you not worried for these girls in the woods at night looking for a stalker?
The Police were already there, We knew that.Anyway you miss the point, perhaps deliberately, otherwise you would have read the reference to the police.

What reference to police? Were the police happy for 14 year old girls to run into the woods searching for a pervert on the loose?
