Toms River police are searching for a man who they say followed an 8-year-old girl around a Dollar Tree store, then came close within her personal space and exposed himself by holding his genitals in his hand.

“The girl’s aunt observed this and immediately confronted the man, who then fled the store,” said Toms River police spokesman Ralph Stocco.

The store is located at 1358 Hooper Avenue, and the incident occurred Nov. 6. Police released surveillance images Wednesday.
