A 30-year-old Caldwell man has been arrested on accusations that he exposed himself to a minor, according to a news release from Caldwell police Saturday evening.

The incident occurred around 2:10 p.m. Saturday near West Ash Street and Sunset Avenue in Caldwell, police said. In an earlier news release, police asked for the public’s help in identifying the man.

The man, a convicted sex offender, was booked into the Canyon County Jail on suspicion of misdemeanor indecent exposure.
