  • Man arrested after exposing himself to hikers at Lynn Canyon Park

North Vancouver RCMP are looking to speak with a witness to an indecent act that occurred at Lynn Canyon Park on July 31st. 

On July 31st, in the evening a park goer told police that a man was exposing himself to hikers.

RCMP officers immediately began patrols in an effort to locate the suspect.

Via release, RCMP say they located and arrested a man matching the description provided by witnesses. The man, who is in his 30’s and is a resident of Delta, was subsequently released on conditions that include not to attend Lynn Canyon Park.

The Mounties are now appealing to that person to come forward and provide information about what they witnessed.

“If you are the person who advised Park Rangers of the indecent act on July 31, we are asking for you to contact North Vancouver RCMP at (604) 985-1311,” said Cpl. Melissa Jongema. Anyone else who witnessed this suspect is also asked to contact police.
