Reno Police Department Detectives and Officers with the Washoe County School District Police have been investigating several cases involving a man exposing himself to female juveniles.
The juveniles told investigators that, in five cases, as they walked home alone from school, a man approached them in a ’90s light-brown, 4-door car.
The man would call to the juveniles, engage them in conversation and would then expose himself.
Reno Police were able to follow several leads and identified a suspect in these incidents.
Yesterday, police arrested 52-year-old Steven Pulgarin, the suspect in the cases.
He was booked on five counts of luring a minor, five counts of open and gross lewdness and one count of indecent exposure.
Anyone who may have been approached by Pulgarin or who has information about these cases, is asked to contact the Reno Police Department Sex Crimes Unit at (775) 657-4601, Washoe County School District Police at (775) 348-0285, or Secret Witness at (775) 322-4900, www.secretwitness.com.
