Man admits exposing himself at nature reserve

A Surrey man has admitted to exposing himself in public while already on bail for sending explicit selfies to a child.

Archie Langsdon, from Camberley, was caught flashing at Barossa Nature Reserve by members of the public on 15 March.

The 20-year-old had previously been arrested in January for sending naked photos of himself to a young girl.

Pleading guilty at Guildford Magistrates Court on Wednesday to indecent exposure and causing a child to look at a sexual image, Langsdon's behaviour was called "concerning and predatory" by Surrey Police.

Det Sgt Ben Green said: "Despite already being under investigation for sending sexual images of himself to a teenage girl, Langsdon still continued his offending by exposing himself in a public space.

"That incident was witnessed by a member of the public, who had the presence of mind to film it and quickly report it to us.

"We were then able to identify Langsdon for this second offence and arrest him."

He added: "If you have been the victim of sexual offending in any form, please do report it to us. We won't judge you and will take such incidents extremely seriously."

Langsdon will remain in custody while awaiting sentencing.
