Pervy ‘serial masturbator’ snared with help of Google Maps after ‘four-year rampage’
Cops have charged a 43-year-old man with repeatedly masturbating outside homes across Brisbane
A ‘SERIAL masturbator’ has been caught with the help of Google Maps after spending the past four years allegedly performing sex acts on quiet streets.
Cops have charged a 43-year-old man who stands accused of peeping into gardens and masturbating in Brisbane.
The man allegedly used to creep around one specific street in Windsor so often over the past four years he was caught by the Google Street View car in July 2017.
In the snap, a man wearing a baseball cap can be seen standing in bushes and peering into a garden.
While the Google photo does not depict the man performing an indecent act, Queensland Police hope the man’s outfit may jog the memory of other potential victims.
'PROWLED SUBURBAN STREETS'
The man is described as caucasian in appearance, around 180 centimetres tall and with brown hair and blue eyes.
Cops are also interested in a white 2013 Hyundai iLoad van with ladders on its roof and a Brisbane Lions 2018 sticker on the rear window parked in any of those areas.
ARE THERE OTHER VICTIMS?
“It could be possible more offences have occurred over the extended time frame … what we're doing is appealing to the public to see if they notice the outfit and they might be able to piece together an incident,” a QPS spokesman said.
“Given the time frame, it would be understandable if there were more victims.”
Police claim the man’s masturbation spree took place between 2015 and 2019 when a number of women reported seeing the man performing indecent acts up and down a street.
