Haverhill man arrested for exposing himself to child in 2011

SALEM, N.H. (MyFoxBoston.com) – A Haverhill man was arrested Thursday on a felony warrant from 2011 for exposing himself to a female child while inside a Walmart, police said.

Ronald Beausoleil, 32, reportedly exposed himself to a child inside the Walmart located at 314 N. Broadway in Salem, N.H. on Sept. 19, 2011; however, police were unable to identify him at the time and the case went cold.

It came to the attention of the Salem Police Department that Beausoleil was arrested for sexually assaulting a child in a Walmart in Plaistow, N.H. on March 11, 2013.

Salem officers reviewed surveillance footage from the Plaistow incident and believed the video still photos resembled the suspect from their indecent exposure investigation.

Authorities assembled a photo line-up and the victim, who was 8-years-old at the time, and an adult witness from the 2011 incident were able to identify Beausoleil as the suspect.

Beausoleil is charged with indecent exposure. He appeared in court Thursday and was held on $10,000 cash bail.
