Girl Reports Man Exposed Himself on Rochester Public Transit Bus

Rochester, MN (KROC-AM News) - The Rochester Police Department is hoping a video recording from a surveillance camera on a Rochester Public Transit bus will help identify a man accused of exposing himself to a teenage girl.

The 16-year-old told investigators she was riding a bus from Apache Mall to downtown Rochester shortly after 9:30 last night when a man on the bus exposed himself while they were traveling on Highway 52. A police spokesman says the girl got off the bus when it stopped at St. Mary's Hospital and she reported the man followed her until she entered the Canadian Honker restaurant.

She then called her mother to give her a ride home and they contacted the Police Department to report the incident about an hour after it occurred.

The man was described as white, in his late 30s or early 40s, and wearing a grayish-brown thick coat.
