Man charged with indecent act 

Police have charged a man in connection with an indecent act that occurred yesterday morning in Bedford.

At approximately 8:30 a.m. on August 29, Halifax Regional Police received a call regarding a man masturbating in his car while driving in Bedford. A woman was driving in the area and turned right off Damascus Road onto Duke Street. A man pulled up beside her and could be observed masturbating. The woman immediately stopped and called police and was able to provide a description of the suspect and his vehicle, as well as the license plate number. Police attended the area and quickly located the car unoccupied in a parking lot in the 900 block of Rocky Lake Drive. 

Through the course of the investigation the suspect was identified and he agreed to meet police. At 10:22 a.m., he was arrested by patrol members without incident in the 700 block of Rock Lake Drive. 

Twenty-six-year-old Theodore Floyd Weare of Caledonia has been charged with one count each of committing an indecent act and breach of probation. He is scheduled to appear in Halifax Provincial court today to face these charges.
