PARK RIDGE, N.Y.—Two police reports from Jan. 19 evidently involve the same man. The first, a suspicious incident, had police dispatched to a business on Hawthorne Avenue where a man had been seen exposing himself an hour earlier.
A caller said a man was in the back of the lot urinating, and then left his fly open, exposing himself.
The description of his clothing and appearance matched that of a man from Victorian Drive in Poestenkill, N.Y., who is known to local police—and who was found sleeping in his car, a black 2016 Fiat, on Hawthorne Avenue just after noon the same day.
Awakened by police, the man smelled of alcohol, which was strong on his breath, and he slurred his words too badly to be understood.
“Knowing his history,” police said, they called an ambulance to take him to New Bridge Medical Center. While waiting, they spoke with the man’s daughter to apprise her of the situation. They also gave the ambulance crew the man’s key fob so they could deliver it to hospital staff. The car was to be kept in a borough lot until the man is released.
A search for anyone else who might have been exposing himself turned up nobody. No further police action was taken.
