A serial flasher is being hunted by police.
Bizarrely, the man has struck seven times in the same two streets.
Over the past two weeks, officers have received reports of seven incidents in the Underwood Lane/West Street area of Crewe.
The first incident was reported at around 11.20am on Sunday October 31 when a man exposed himself in front of a woman near to the junction of Underwood Lane and West Street.

Then, between 11.52am Saturday November 6 and 7.23pm on Sunday November 7, police were called to a further six incidents in the same area where women were approached by an unknown man.
During some of the incidents, the man followed the women and on other occasions he grabbed hold of them by the wrist. None of the victims were injured but have been left extremely shaken.
The man is described as white, with a tanned complexion, around 6’ tall and of stocky build.
During some of the incidents he was described as wearing baseball style shorts and a dark hooded top, with the hood up.
Enquiries are ongoing in the local area and officers are doing all they can to identify the man.
Detective Chief Inspector Dave Moores, who is leading the investigation, said: “I understand the concern these incidents are likely to cause and I want to reassure residents that a number of enquiries are ongoing and we are doing everything we can to trace the person responsible.
“Patrols have been stepped up in the area and I would urge anyone with any concerns to speak to a local officer.
“As part of our enquiries, I am also keen to hear from anyone who recognises the description of the man or has any information which may assist with our investigation.”
Anyone with any information in relation to any of the incidents is asked to call Cheshire Police on 101 quoting IML 1127141 or visit www.cheshire.police.uk/tua.
