Bedfordshire Police have launched an appeal for information after a man indecently exposed himself to a woman in the Brickhill area of Bedford.

At around 10.15am on Tuesday 5 October, a woman was approached by a man while walking on Hawk Drive in Brickhill.

He then indecently exposed himself and walked off in the direction of Brickhill.

At the time he was wearing a grey hooded jacket and black trousers.
