Police are looking for a man who exposed himself to a teenage girl at Cardiff South.
The 14-year-old was walking along a track at Winding Creek near Fifth Street just after 9 yesterday morning when the man approached her from behind a bush and exposed himself.
The girl ran from the scene and informed a teacher who called police.
The man is described as being of Caucasian appearance, in his mid 50's, about 175-180cm tall and 70-80kg with short grey/black hair. At the time he was wearing a T-shirt and blue jeans. He was also wearing tinted reading glasses.
The incident has again prompted police to encourage parents to discuss the 'Safe People, Safe Places' messages with their children.
In particular, young people should make sure their parents or another adult knows where they are at all times and always walk straight home or to the place they are walking to using busier roads and streets or paths where there are lots of people. Know where safe places are like a shop, service station, police station, library or school and don't talk to strangers or get into a car driven by a person they don't know.
