Yet another naked man has been seen performing a lewd act on St Clair beach, before running off into the bushes ahead of the arrival of police yesterday evening.
Senior Sergeant Craig Dinnissen, of Dunedin, said police were urging people to get in touch if they saw suspicious activity in the area, and to take a photo if possible.
The incident is the latest in a spate of reports of naked men performing lewd acts at St Clair and St Kilda beaches in the past few months.
This man did not match the descriptions of earlier men who reportedly performed lewd acts in the dunes, bushes or on the beach.
Dinnissen said the man was described as Maori, tall and of solid build, with black curly hair and facial hair, and nude.
