Police are hunting a flasher who repeatedly exposed himself to women at a beauty sport a short drive from Stoke-on-Trent. The man targeted multiple women over 'several months' in the picturesque Macclesfleld Forest on the edge of the Peak District.

The suspect is described as being white, and in his 20s to 30s with dark hair. Now officers are urging anyone who sees the man to call 999 straight away and provide their What3Words location.

Sgt Claire Lloyd, of Cheshire Police, said: “While he doesn’t make any attempt to approach them, it does cause them some alarm. We are actively making enquiries to find this man and are urging anyone who sees him to ring us immediately on 999 with your What3Words location so we can make every effort to catch him. If you haven’t already, you can download the What3Words app from your phone app store.
