NEWARK, Del. (WPVI) -- New Castle County Police are looking for a man who they say exposed himself in public on two recent occasions.

It was approximately 6:54 p.m. Thursday when police responded to the unit block of Mercer Drive where a witness told them that a suspicious man had exposed his genitals.

The witness said the man was walking in front of her home, and when he exited her home she said he exposed himself.

The woman then called 911, but responding officers were unable to locate the man.

Police say this incident is similar to another report they received on Sunday, June 6.

On that occasion police say a man was observed in the unit block of Lynch Farm Drive in the Todd Estates neighborhood performing a lewd act.

Witnesses in this case photographed the suspect as he fled on foot.

He was last seen wearing a white T-shirt, red gym shorts with a white stripe and flip flops. He has also been seen wearing a white T-shirt, tan cargo pants and tan boots.
