Richard Overton, a 41-year-old man, of no fixed address, is facing charges on three counts of indecent acts in Port Hardy.

According to a news release from the RCMP, on June 2, officers responded to a business located in the 8700 block of Granville Street after receiving a complaint about a man exposing himself to the public after being expelled from the business due to his gross level of intoxication.

Upon arrival, officers were able to locate the man matching the description and was taken into custody for investigative purposes where he was later released after sobering up.

Police were notified again on June 22 and June 23 of two other separate indecent acts incidents, which involved the same man previously arrested on June 2. Due to a detailed description and statements from witnesses, officers were able to provide the BC Prosecution Service with a detailed report that led to the charges being filed.
