A flasher exposing himself and indecently assaulting women in Christchurch's earthquake-ravaged "red zone" is being pursued by police.
Police are asking members of the public out in the early hours of the River-Retreat Rds area of the eastern suburbs to "remain aware of their surroundings".
"A small number of reports have been received of a young male approaching women, exposing himself, and in some instances indecently assaulting them," a police statement says this morning.
