Toronto police are searching for a man who allegedly exposed himself to students on a trail in North York on Wednesday.

Police said they received a call for an indecent exposure at the entrance of Duncan Creek Trail on Francine Drive, near the area of Steeles Avenue East and Don Mills Road.

Officers found that a man stopped at the top of the hill trail entrance around 8:20 a.m. and allegedly exposed himself to students who were walking to school. There are two elementary and one secondary schools near the trail.

Police said the man walked away, last seen eastbound on the Duncan Creek Trail path.

On Thursday, investigators released a photo of the suspect, who is described as a white man over 30 years old with blue eyes. He was last seen wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and black sweatpants.

They are asking anyone with information to contact investigators at 416-808-3300 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477) or www.222tips.com.
