A man who was reportedly spotted touching himself in a car on a Beaconsfield road near schools has been arrested - days after pupils were warned not to walk alone in the area.

A 30-year-old man from High Wycombe was arrested for outraging public decency after he was reported for inappropriately touching himself in a vehicle in Wattleton Road at around 12:50 pm yesterday (March 3).

It comes after Beaconsfield School pupils were warned in an assembly last week to avoid walking alone and to walk together in groups following reports of a man loitering outside the school.

The man was arrested in connection with the incident shortly before 7pm yesterday and has been released on bail until March 31.

Wattleton Road is also home to Beaconsfield High and Butlers Court Primary School.
