Police are still looking for witnesses after a man allegedly exposed himself Sunday afternoon at a playground in a town near Ramstein Air Base.

A woman has since reported seeing a man matching the suspect’s description twice in December while walking her dog in Weilerbach, Westpfalz police said in a statement. On both occasions, the man also allegedly exposed himself to her.

The incidents took place at the Busenwiesen playground, located in a recreation area on Mackenbacher Strasse known locally as the Duck Park.

The man is described as light-skinned, between 40 and 50 years old, and about 5-foot-5 to 5-foot-9. He was wearing dark clothing and had a black cloth covering his face, police said.

Anyone who witnessed the incident or may have seen the man is asked to call the Westpfalz Police Department at 0631 369-13312.
