Police are appealing for witnesses after a man committed a lewd act in a public place in Cheltenham last night, Monday 25 April.

Officers attended and arrested a 34-year-old man from Cheltenham on suspicion of outraging public decency. He has since been released from custody.
Despite the arrest, investigating officers are asking anyone with information to please get in contact.
