Child Abuse Squad detectives in Perth are currently looking into whether two sexually indecent incidents involving minors are connected. The incidents, which occurred in neighbouring suburbs a week apart, saw an unknown male riding a bike engaging in inappropriate conversations of a sexual nature with an 11-year-old boy and an 11-year-old girl.
Both incidents, one on Waterperry Drive in Canning Vale and the other on Lakeside Drive in Thornlie, involved the male exposing himself to the victims. Descriptions provided by the children and their families point to a fair-skinned male, aged between 16 to 20 in the first incident and 17 to 18 in the second.
Authorities are exploring the possibility of a link between the incidents due to their close proximity, similar circumstances, and descriptions of the male involved. Individuals with any information regarding these incidents are urged to reach out to Crime Stoppers or make confidential reports to assist in the investigation.
