South Dublin gardaí are investigating an incident in which a man allegedly exposed himself to schoolchildren on the DART line.

A group of schoolgirls were horrified this morning on their commute to school when it is said a man dropped his pants in front of them on the Killiney DART route.

According to the Irish Mirror a source is quoted as having said;

“The girls got off the DART in Killiney to go to school and he got off as well. He then exposed himself in front of the kids. Officers are examining all CCTV from Bray to Killiney in an effort to identify suspect.”

The suspect has not yet been apprehended but is described as being a middle aged man with a scruffy appearance.

The young girls were shocked by the incident but luckily no physical harm was caused to any of them. Gardaí are continuing to look into the alleged crime .

It is believed to be an isolated incident but gardaí have appealed to the public to report anything suspicious that they witness on the DART to Iarnród Éireann or their local garda station.
