Teen twice flashed two women in park, and more

The following items were taken from Orland Park Police reports released Feb. 9 and Feb. 13.

Persistent Flasher

  • Police say a teen allegedly took advantage of Jan. 31 temperatures reaching a balmy 57 degrees to twice expose himself to two women on the village’s southwest side. One of the women told police she initially noticed the 15- to 17-year-old male on the paved path in Brook Hill Park walking toward them with his jeans unzipped, exposing himself. She and the other woman reportedly veered to the right and then walked north on the east side of Highwood Drive only to encounter the teen walking toward them on the 17300 block. Police said both women later identified the teen. Police turned the youth over to his father after charging him with disorderly conduct.

DUI

  • A 54-year-old Matteson man who had been pulling a trailer southbound on Harlem Avenue was arrested at 4:15 p.m. Feb. 3 at a gas station on the 15200 block of Harlem after reportedly sparking a flurry of reckless-driving complaints from other motorists. He is scheduled to appear in court March 26 on charges of DUI, driving on a revoked license, failing to signal before turning, illegal transportation of alcohol and operating a motor vehicle with suspended registration. Police also seized his pickup truck.
