A man has been charged after he allegedly exposed himself to two teenagers at Waratah yesterday.

About 4.30pm (Monday 11 August 2015), a girl and boy – both aged 14 – were with a group of friends on Station Street when a 34-year-old man approached them.

It’s alleged the man exposed himself to the pair before leaving the area.

The matter was reported to police from Newcastle City Local Area Command, who arrested the man later in the evening at his home.

He was charged with wilful and obscene exposure and granted strict conditional bail to appear before Newcastle Local Court on Thursday 27 August 2015.
