Clarence Fleming, 60, covered himself up when he saw officers responding to a complaint pulled up at the busy Edgewater Commons shopping center on River Road store around 7 p.m. Monday, Detective Sgt. Teddy Wetklow said.
Fleming told Officers Mike Monroe, Sergio Cervantes and Victor Lopez “that he was in a private area and asked to be left alone, even though he was sitting in front of the store” in a mall “where many families with children shop,” Wetklow said.
They arrested Fleming on lewdness charges and sent him to the Bergen County Jail, where he remained held Tuesday pending a first appearance in Central Judicial Processing Court in Hackensack.
