Photographs have been released of a woman thought to have
exposed herself to a car full of children in a West Midlands supermarket car
park. Police said the woman approached the car in Smethwick and "became
argumentative" with the female driver.
She then unzipped her jacket revealing her naked body to the woman and her
children, aged 13, 12, 10 and four. Sgt James Proffitt, from West Midlands Police, said it was the first time he
had ever heard of "a lady flasher". The crime is being treated as a serious sexual offence, which had left the
children's mother shocked," he added.
The 33-year-old victim took two photographs of the suspect when she ran away,
which have been published by the police to try to identify her. The flasher is described as black and in her late 20s. Sgt Proffitt, said "The woman had no regard for the young children who were
exposed to this kind of behaviour.
"This is a very serious crime and we would appeal to anyone who may know this
woman to call us. Why she did this still remains unclear and this is now an opportunity for
her to contact us and explain." The incident happened at about 8:00pm in the Asda supermarket car park in
Cape Hill on 20 July.
