Police: Man Charged with Indecent Exposure in Shirlington
Spokesman: Victim identified attacker to police.
Billy Lollar, 28, of Arlington, has been charged with indecent exposure after an incident in Shirlington this week.
Shortly before 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, a woman leaving a parking garage in the 3000 block of South Randolph Street saw the man exposing himself to her, according to police.
Lollar was about 15 to 20 feet away from her, police spokesman Dustin Sternbeck said. It isn't clear if the two know each other or had a prior relationship, he said.
The woman entered an adjacent parking garage, called police and waited for officers to arrive. She identified Lollar to the officers, Sternbeck said.
Lollar was released Wednesday after posting a $2,000 bond, according to the Arlington County Sheriff's Office.

No corroborating witnesses? Did suspect admit it? If no to both why was he arrested?

The Patch blogs have a bad habit of posting the names of people who are arrested. McLean is the worst, you can get your name posted for a speeding violation. How about a followup? I would like to know if this charge is for real or the woman who filed the complaint saw someone she disliked and saw an opportunity.

Of course the charge is real. That's why this man was arrested. And had his mugshot taken at the county jail. And had his information released by the police and sheriff's office. And why we reported it. Blogs report on things they hear. News sites report on factual information. We actually report a lot less crime news than I'd like, but part of that is due to the restrictive nature of Virginia's FOIA laws.

False and malicious 'suspicious person' complaints are so common in this county it's scarey. The police both respond and do no checking to determine whether the complaintant has animosity toward the suspect.
