Police were today hunting for a man they believe was responsible for commiting two obscene acts in front of women in Clacton.
A 19-year-old was in the area of Marine Parade West and Collingwood Road in the town just before midnight last night.
Car headlights were flashed and a man shouted out to her.
Insp Mick Ornellas said the man called at her to look over to him and he then commited the obscene act.
"The woman was quite upset and shaken up by what happened," he said.
The man was described as between 20 and 30-years-old and was white.
Insp Ornellas said about half an hour later officers receieved a report of a man commiting the same act in Old Road, near the 24-hour Shell petrol station.
"He was standing on a wall and was seen by a number of members of the public."
Again the man was believed to to be between 20 and 30-years-old and was wearing a Tommy Sports top.
Anyone who can help police with their inquiries should contact 01255 221312
