NSW man wanted for act of indecency

Police are searching for a man after he allegedly committed an act of indecency in front of two boys in Wollongong.

Police said two boys, aged 11 and 14, were fishing near a yacht club on Northcliffe Drive about 2pm (AEST) on Friday, when a man approached them and tried to start a conversation.

When that failed, the man stood a short distance away and allegedly committed an act of indecency, before the boys ran home to alert their parents.

The man was described as Caucasian, 30 to 40 years old, with an average build and about 165cm tall.

He has a shaved head with a tuft of hair at the front, and was wearing a black T-shirt with black jeans and a black cap with white writing.
