Police are looking to trace a man who exposed himself to a woman - wearing nothing but a blue beanie hat.

The incident happened at Crerar Close, Maryport at around 12.40am today.

A spokeswoman for Cumbria police said that it is the fourth incident since December where a man - wearing nothing but a blue beanie - has exposed himself to a woman at Crerar Close.

Other incidents were reported to police on December 23, December 29 and January 10.

Inspector Richard Smillie said: "No one has been approached during any of these incidents, but it is obviously very shocking for those who have seen him. It is completely unacceptable and we are working hard to trace the man responsible.

"I would urge anyone who has any information that may help our investigation to get in touch."

Witnesses or anyone with information is asked to call 101 and ask for PC 2395 Jamie Callon or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
