This man is wanted for allegedly exposing himself to a female employee at The Country Store (10555 W Highway 318 in Reddick) on October 6, 2023

According to the Marion County Sheriff’s Office, the man entered the store, purchased lottery tickets, and walked down an aisle that was directly across from the counter where a female employee was working.

MCSO stated that the man then asked for the employee to come over and help him. When the employee told him that she had to remain behind the counter, the man allegedly “put his hands in his pants,” began “playing with himself,” and exposed his genitalia to her.

The employee told the man that he needed to leave and then called 911. The man exited the store and traveled westbound in his sedan on Highway 318.

“We need to identify this pervert before he exposes himself to someone else,” stated MCSO on its Facebook page.
