- Officers released a recent photo of the man and are reviewing a viewer’s video from weeks earlier that appears to show the same person.
- Police increased patrols in key areas, including the Scenic Loop, Hogan’s Fountain, Chauffeur’s Rest and the lower soccer fields.
- Witnesses reported that the man sometimes appears unclothed, commits lewd acts, and runs away, and police say children have seen the behavior.
