York police: Man arrested after exposing himself in police station lobby

A Sharon man was arrested Thursday night after York police say he exposed himself in the police station lobby.

The officer on duty at the York police station on North Roosevelt Street looked into the public lobby at 10:30 p.m. and noticed a 57-year-old man asleep in a chair with his belt undone and pants unbuttoned. Upon closer examination, the officer noticed the man had his genitals exposed.

Two officers woke the man up and asked him why he was exposing himself in a public place. The man replied that “he was sleepy and trying to get comfortable,” according to the arrest report.

The man was arrested and charged with public disorderly conduct.
