Felon Flashed Teen Girl At Mailbox Article

A 30-year-old man was arrested for flashing himself to a teenager at a mailbox and began following her.

A man approached a young girl while she was at the mailbox of her apartment complex and asked for the time. The victim was looking for her phone in her pocket when the man exposed himself and began touching himself methodically in an inappropriate manner. The girl left quickly and went home.

The next afternoon, the man approached her again as she was walking home, but she left in a hurry without saying anything to him.

Later in the evening while the teen was driving in the neighborhood with her mom, they spotted the man and took note of where he lived.  The girl helped investigators create a composite sketch, which then allowed detectives to identify him.

Mathew Bennett, a registered felon, was arrested and charged for exposing himself and stalking.

Seems like this flasher will be having a lot of time on his hands…in jail.
