8/19/14 - Oakland County authorities have charged a Green Oak Township man with several counts of indecent exposure. 30-year-old Nathanael Armstrong is charged with three counts of aggravated indecent exposure for incidents in South Lyon and one count of indecent exposure alleged to have occurred in Novi. After the three South Lyon incidents, which occurred between April 15th and June 25th, South Lyon Police Lt. Chris Sovik noticed a press release from Novi Police about a July 14th incident at a Target store that included a surveillance photo of a suspect wearing medical scrubs. He noticed the suspect looked similar to Armstrong, who he had interviewed previously. Sovik also remembered Armstrong mentioning that he worked as a traveling nurse. Further investigation by both departments led to a positive identification. Each count of aggravated indecent exposure is a two-year misdemeanor, while the simple indecent exposure charge carries a maximum penalty of 1 year in prison. Armstrong is scheduled for a pre-exam conference Wednesday in Oakland County District Court in Novi. Armstrong also faces two counts of indecent exposure in Livingston County related to incidents alleged earlier this year at the Green Oak Village Place mall. Those incidents went unreported to police until Armstrong was publicly identified in the South Lyon cases. (JK)
