On Sunday, January 5, 2025, at approximately 10:08 AM, the Hanover Police responded to a report of a suspicious male party reportedly following a female at 1775 Washington Street, Hanover Crossing.

The 17-year-old victim stated she was seated in her vehicle, at which time a white pickup truck pulled up next to her. The victim further advised she observed a male in the truck clearly staring at her before he eventually exited his truck and exposed himself to her. The male then got back into his truck and began to drive in circles around the victim’s vehicle. Soon after, he pulled up next to the victim’s vehicle a second time while honking his horn in an attempt to get the victim’s attention. When he was unsuccessful, the male then drove away from the victim and parked in front of a neighboring business.

Upon arrival, Hanover Officers interviewed the victim, who was able to provide a solid description of the suspect, including a photograph of the suspect’s vehicle. Officers quickly located the vehicle and the suspect who was still on the property. After conducting an investigation, the suspect, identified as Justin S.
