TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) – Tallahassee Police are seeing an uptick in indecent exposure incidents in the community, according to the police department.
TPD statistics indicate that so far this year, they’ve received 36 calls for service for indecent exposure. In 2025, police received 67 calls.

Police Chief Lawrence Revell said they take these cases very seriously “because of the impact they can have on victims and the public’s sense of safety.”
“These incidents are especially concerning when they happen in places where people should feel secure, whether that’s in their neighborhood, at a park, or near their home,” he said. “While substance abuse may be a contributing factor in some of these cases, it is not an excuse for this behavior.”
Chief Revell encourages anyone who witnesses this type of activity to “avoid approaching the individual, create distance, call 911 immediately, and provide as much information as possible so officers can respond quickly and appropriately.”
