Crime Stoppers on Wednesday issued an "urgent community alert," including photos taken from campus security cameras with the hope that someone can identify the man suspected of the indecent exposures after trespassing into the Andress school building.

The El Paso Independent School District is trying to determine how the unidentified man was able to gain access into the school at 5400 Sun Valley Drive in Northeast El Paso.

The man entered the school about 11 a.m. on Dec. 14 and entered a girls' restroom, where he hid inside a stall. The man then exposed himself to at least two girls before fleeing the campus, Crime Stoppers said. The man left walking north towards Mackinaw Street and Capistrano Drive.
