Watch: Creep sprints away after allegedly exposing himself to nine-year-old girl on Melbourne tram

January 30, 2018

Police in Melbourne are trying to track down a man who they say exposed himself to a nine-year-old girl on a tram in the central city, then ran off when confronted by a member of her family.

9News reports police say the man "positioned himself near the child" on the tram, and during the incident committed a lewd act.

When the tram stopped, the man fled the tram after being confronted by a member of the girl's family who was travelling with her.

Detectives have released CCTV of the man they're looking for.

He can be seen running from a tram stop, across the road and along a footpath.
