From a naked man hiding in bushes to a man performing a lewd act in broad daylight, victims have been left traumatised by flashers over the years.
In 2017, South Yorkshire Police launched a manhunt to find a serial flasher who targeted women at the ever popular Endcliffe Park.
There was also an incident in 2020 where a 16-year-old was harassed by a man who exposed himself and committed a lewd act whilst she was out walking on Ponderosa Park.
And due to the lack of surveillance in some parks such as security cameras, the majority of perpetrators remain at large.
Here, we take a look back at some of the incidents reported to South Yorkshire Police.
