Hartford Man Accused Of Lewd Acts Three Times Over In Vernon

VERNON, CT — A 23-year-old Hartford man is in custody on three warrants accusing him of indecent exposure in Vernon.

On Wednesday morning, Joshua Sylvester surrendered in the Vernon Police Department lobby. He was charged with public indecency and second-degree breach of peace on all three warrants, records show.

Sylvester was initially held on bonds totaling $30,000, or $10,000 for each, and appeared in Rockville Superior Court later in the day. The bonds were reduced to $7,500 for each warrant, which Sylvester did not post, according to judicial system records. He is due back before a judge on Nov. 15.

Sylvester is accused of lewdly exposing himself to women three times at two Vernon Locations — a professional building at 281 Hartford Turnpike on June 5 and Sept. 25 and at the Stop & Shop Supermarket next door at 10 Pitkin Road on April 11, according to the warrants.
