Melbourne man flashes girl and mother

Images have been released of a man who indecently exposed himself to a six-year-old girl and her mum in Melbourne's west earlier this month.

The child alerted her mother, with the flasher exposing himself twice more to the mother before he fled on Moore Street at Footscray.

The mother managed to take a photo of the man, with police releasing the image along with a CCTV image in a bid for public assistance.
