Residents claim they were told charges were not pressed because of the witnesses age.
One said: “We have seen this man around parks before, and he even followed one a young girl home.
“After getting all this information together and reporting him to the police, it was dropped because the witness was only five and apparently not old enough to make a formal identification.

“We’re so disappointed because we gave them this man on a plate after he was identified by the girl he exposed himself to.
“But now he’s just allowed to walk free, what will it take for the police to do something?”
In response to this, a Thames Valley Police spokesperson, said: “Thames Valley Police is unable to respond to complaints made through the media.
