Investigators said a man recently exposed himself to a 10-year-old girl in the parking lot of Prime Outlets, at I-Drive and Oak Ridge Road. The girl was taking shopping bags to her family's car when the man flashed her.

Orlando Police Department said it has increased patrols in and around the outlets, which comes as a huge relief for shoppers.

"Oh! It's a scary thing, especially at a place like this," said mother Krystel Lewis. "Anything can happen, especially in a place like this, where people are coming from all over the world."

Investigators said they're also looking into two other cases, one that happened at Wet N Wild in April and another at a nearby motel last October.

Anyone with information is urged to call the Orlando Police Department.
