Arvada police believe that one man has exposed himself to women in eight incidents at area businesses since the beginning of the year.
The man masturbates in front of female clientele or employees but never enters the businesses. Instead, he accosts the women as they enter or leave the building.
“In most situations, he mills about the business for up to one-half hour prior to exposing himself to victims,” Arvada police spokeswoman Susan Medina said in a release.
The suspect is between 5-foot-5 and 5-foot-9, 20 to 30 years old, white or Latino, and has a thin to medium build.
He has been seen with a 1990s light-colored, four-door compact sedan.
These are the exposure locations:
Police are contacting area businesses and registered sex offenders in the city. Officers are working with other law-enforcement agencies to determine whether there are similar incidents in neighboring jurisdictions.
