IN CUSTODY: Man Wanted for Open Lewdness; Indecent Exposure

We reported last night that the Mahanoy Township Police Department was looking for a man after an Open Lewdness, Indecent Exposure Incident.


Just before 6pm, the suspect walked into the Shell gas station on the Morea Road in Mahanoy Township. He then walked into the bathroom for several minutes and then walked towards the counter revealing his genitals to the cashier then placing them on the counter. The suspect then quickly exited the gas station and fled in a White Ford Freestyle Station Wagon.

The Police Department announced via their Facebook page early Friday morning that they have the suspect in custody and wanted to thank everyone who called in information regarding the incident.

UPDATE:  The suspect's name is Eric Eichenberg from Llewellyn. He was arraigned Friday morning with 10 thousand straight cash bail.
