A former employee of a Safeway Food and Drug store went back to his former workplace and exposed himself, according to police.
Police were called on Tuesday, April 28, at 12:45 p.m., to a Safeway Food and Drug store at 4240 Merchant Plaza in Lake Ridge. A man, who was identified as a former worker at the stated Safeway store, walked up to the counter where a female employee was working, made obscene gestures, and exposed himself, according to police.
A witness saw it go down and then reported the incident to a store manager.
“The female employee was unaware of the gestures by the accused who left the store prior to police arriving at the business,” states Prince William County Police Department Spokeswoman, Renee Carr.
The store manager looked back into security camera tapes and found the suspect caught in the act according to police. He was then able to identify the suspect to the police.
No one was injured.
Michael Earl Alexander, 29, of 4923 Longhorn Drive of Dale City, is charged with indecent exposure with a pending court date.
