North Canton police are looking for a man they say exposed himself to a 19-year old woman.

Police say Tuesday afternoon they receieved a call around 12:50 saying a man was sitting in a van in the parking lot of the Walgreens on S Main St naked from the waist down.

The man allegedly called out to the teen, and when she looked at him he appeared to be masturbating.

The woman described the suspect as a white man, tan, with black hair, 40-50 years of age and wearing a green shirt. She described the vehicle as a full-size tan conversion van with a thin and thick horizontal black stripe and a luggage rack on top.

Anyone with information on this man, or his vehicle, or may have a similar encounter should call North Canton Police.
