TWO young girls are in shock after a man indecently exposed himself in a churchyard.

The youngsters, both 14, were in the grounds of St Mary's Church Rodbourne at 4.30pm on Monday when the incident happened. PC Rick Barnes, of Swindon police, said: "The girls were sitting on a bench outside the church when they noticed the man in the church yard. They felt uneasy about him, as he was watching them, and when they went into the churchyard he exposed himself. They are obviously upset and distressed by what happened." The suspect was in his late 30s to early 40s, of medium build, 5ft 8 tall and clean shaven. He wore a light blue woolly hat with a dark blue stripe and a light blue tracksuit.

Anyone with information should call Swindon police on 01793 528111.
