Redmond Police arrested a 37-year-old Hispanic man for indecent exposure at Redmond's Grasslawn Park Thursday night.

Police believe the man was "linked to at least three previous cases with a similar suspect description over the last six months," said Jim Bove, Redmond Police spokesperson.

A woman called police at 5:39 p.m. after she saw the suspect "exposing and touching himself," Bove said.

"The victim who saw him ran to the parking lot to borrow someone's cell phone to call 911," Bove said.

Officers responded within minutes and the woman pointed out the suspect, who was still at the park.

"This was not only an important arrest because of the circumstances, but just as important that the victim kept her wits about her and responded exactly how she was supposed to: calling us with a description and location of the man," Bove said.
