The victim told police she was walking on Claremont Avenue when the man pulled up beside her on Dec. 16 -- his genitals exposed and masturbating, Montclair Police Sgt. Terrence Turner said.

The mid-sized sedan, possibly metallic in color, fled westbound on Claremont Avenue, Turner said.

The suspect could only be described as a male with dark complexion, possibly Hispanic, in his 30s.

No further information was released.
