Police charge male with indecent acts, breach of conditions

Lethbridge Police have charged a 59-year old male with committing an indecent act following an incident at a city park. 

On Oct. 15 around 3 p.m., police responded to a report of an indecent act at the playground in Galt Gardens along the 600 block of 3 Avenue South. Witnesses reported that an unknown male sat on a bench near multiple children who were playing in the area and was observed committing an indecent act. 

LPS says members of the Downtown Policing Unit attended and located a male matching the suspect description a short time later. He was subsequently arrested without incident. 

At the time of the arrest, police determined the male was bound by conditions prohibiting him from attending any city park.
