SANDY SPRINGS, GA -- A woman enjoying a mid-morning hike in Sandy Springs stumbled upon a man wearing nothing but a pair of eye glasses last month at Morgan Falls Overlook Park. Officers were dispatched to a call of indecent exposure at the park at 200 Morgan Falls Road around 9:40 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 17.

The officer met with the woman, who said she was hiking the trail at the park when she came across a "black male with a short, crew cut haircut and square framed glasses."

"She said as she approached the man, they greeted each other and she noticed that the man was only holding up his shorts, a black pair with a white stripe," the report adds. "She said the man said he was 'a local friendly nudist'."

The resident told police she continued down the trail, and the male subject strolled towards the parking lot for the park. An officer canvassed the playground, parking lot and roughly 150 yards of the trail and did not locate anyone fitting the woman's description.
