Flasher targets trio

THREE schoolgirls were shocked when a man exposed himself to them in Chadderton.

The incident happened in a wooded area near St Luke’s Primary School in Albion Street as the girls went to school. The man - white, around 58 and with grey hair - targeted the youngsters as they walked to the nearby Radclyffe School. He wore a dark green hooded top and navy blue tracksuit bottoms.

The news comes just weeks after police launched a hunt for a serial flasher who struck six times in Chadderton and Daisy Nook in May.

Anyone with information should call Crimestoppers on 0800-555 111.
