Metro police are on the lookout for a man who riders say exposed himself while riding the Blue Line train last Thursday night, April 2.

A passenger snapped a photo of the man before he got off the train at the Reagan National stop and gave it to Metro police, who have released the photo to the media.

The Washington Post reported that a woman who got on at the Farragut West stop noticed the man was masturbating underneath a newspaper. A rider told authorities about the incident.

Authorities released the photo and said that said anyone who is able to identify the man may contact detectives from the Metro Transit Police Department at 202-962-2121 and reference case No. 2015-16401. Police said tips can also be sent via text message to “MyMTPD” (696873).
