Man Who Exposed Himself To Huntington Student Arrested: Police

The man who exposed himself to a Huntington High School student last week was arrested Sunday night at his home, police say.

According to authorities, a female High School Student was walking on Oakwood Road to her parked vehicle on Holdsworth Drive when Eric Lombardi, 44, of Plainview, pulled up next to her in a 2007 red Ford Explorer at 2:05 p.m. on Thursday, May 18.

The teen told police she saw the man masturbating and told him she was going to call police. Lombardi then drove away, police say. The student was able to capture vehicle's license plate number and reported the incident to the school. The police were notified and began an investigation.

Officers arrested Lombardi in front of his Arthur Place home at 8:25 p.m. on Sunday. He was charged with public lewdness and will be arraigned Monday at First District Court in Central Islip.

Huntington Superintendent of Schools James Polansky sent out a letter to parents on Thursday informing them of the situation.
