(BLOOMINGTON) - Police are investigating whether a man accused of chasing young women while exposing himself in Bloomington is the same suspect accused of flashing women on the Monon Trail.
Police says 38-year-old Brandon Whitacre is out of jail just a day after they arrested him for public nudity.
Back in February, Indianapolis police arrested a 38-year-old Brandon Whitacre for public nudity and public indecency with prior convictions after flashing women on the Monon Trail.
After FOX59 news called police to point out the possible connection, Sgt. David Alley says they're working to see if their suspect is the same Brandon Whitacre.
Students say the possibility that a man could be doing this in different parts of Indiana is terrifying and they plan to be more cautious moving forward.
"I'm going to close the gate, so he can't come in without our access key and definitely lock the doors and the back windows and stuff because you could so try to get in on that, if you sneak through," said Apple Gray, who lives on the same block where the incident happened told FOX59 News. "So yeah, I'm going to lock a lot of things!"
Court documents show no court date has been set for Whitacre on the charge from the Monon flashing incident.
