Alleged flasher starts new year in court

A 25-year-old man will start the new year in court after allegedly "flashing" to passersby on two occasions in Brisbane.

The Cleveland resident allegedly exposed himself on Old Cleveland Road, a major thoroughfare, at Camp Hill in Brisbane's southeast earlier this month.

Police say he also exposed himself on December 27 in Middle Street, Cleveland in Brisbane's bayside.

He has been charged with two counts of indecent acts and is due to appear in the Brisbane Magistrates Court on Thursday.
