Police hunt Grangemouth cyclist flasher

Police are appealing for witnesses after a cyclist indecently exposed himself to two women in Zetland Park on Thursday evening.

Officers say the incident follows a number of other similar offences allegedly committed in Grangemouth, over recent months, including in Tummel Place, Bowhouse Road, Wood Street and Myreton Road.

The women were walking in the Park’s Drummond Place at around 6.45pm when the latest offence is said to have taken place.
