A transient who decided to bare it all in Memorial Park is now facing criminal charges.

On Wednesday, an Officer with the North Platte Police Department responded to Memorial Park on the report of a male suspect that had exposed himself to visitors at the park.

Upon arrival, the Officer met with several witnesses who indicated that the male suspect had his pants down to his ankles on two occasions in the middle of the park.  Police were informed that the man had exposed his genitals and buttocks, while several adults and children were present.

A witness told Police that the man had entered the bathroom at the park.  The officer made contact with the suspect, Patrick Scanlon, who was shirtless at the time.

Police say that Scanlon was intoxicated, and his pants were falling down during questioning from the investigating officer.  The officer also noted that Scanlon was not wearing underwear.

Following the investigation, the Officer placed Scanlon under arrest for Public Indecency and transported him to Lincoln County Detention Center.
