Man Sought for Allegedly Showing Minor an Obscene Video

Hatboro Police are looking for a man accused of showing a sexually explicit video to a 12-year-old girl Saturday night during the borough's annual car show.

Police said two 12-year-old girls were approached at about 9:30 p.m. in the area of Summit Avenue near York Road by a white man described as being in his 50s or 60s, 5' 9" tall, with a thin build, a gray buzz cut hairstyle and a thin, gray beard. 

The suspect allegedly asked the girls what time it was, then inquired into what restaurants were in the area. While talking to them, he leaned closely against one of the girls and commented that he had a new phone and asked if she knew how to turn off the video. He then showed the girl the display of his phone, which had a sexually explicit video playing.

The girls fled the area and contacted their parents, who summoned authorities. Police failed to locate the subject. 

He was wearing a navy blue or black T-shirt that had an unknown type of design on the front, blue jean shorts that came down to his knees and white sneakers. 

Anyone who observed anything suspicious or had a similar encounter at the car show, or who has information about this incident, is urged to call the Hatboro Police at 215-675-2832.
