A Cheshire Police spokeswoman said: “At 3.52pm on Sunday 18 August police received a report of a man exposing himself to a child at Nantwich Lake on Shrewbridge Road, Nantwich.

“The girl had been walking around the lake when she was approached by an unknown man who engaged in conversation with her while exposing himself. At no point did he touch her or make any sexual comments towards her.

“The man has been described as white and wearing a green jacket, denim shorts and a hat.”

Detective Inspector Claire Jesson said: “Officers attended to the scene where they spoke to the public nearby to see if they had seen the man. They then conducted an extensive search of the area but could not locate him.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
