Man Arrested In US For Masturbating Openly In Front Of Women

A 22-year-old Shasta Lake man admitted to police he exposed himself to at least three women in a Shopko parking lot at 55 Lake Boulevard in Redding.

Kawan Okoye Gaidowsky admitted to the Redding Police Department he was driving a gray, 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt when he pulled up next to a woman in the Shopko parking lot, pulled out his joystick and began to masturbate on Wednesday morning around 8:42 a.m., police said.

The woman, Ashlee Libolt, reported the car's description and license plate to police.

A police officer checked the car's records and found it was registered to Gaidowsky. He was feeling extra generous when he was interviewed by police and admitted he did expose himself to Libolt in the parking lot, but also exposed himself to two other female victims who were caught in his exposure spree, police said.

One exposure was last month and the other was not reported, according to Sgt. Les James.

Gaidowsky was arrested for investigation of indecent exposure and booked at the Shasta County Jail.

Police say there may be more victims, because Gaidowsky admitted this isn't the first time he's exposed himself in public.
