Man arrested, accused of exposing himself to teens at Seekonk Target

SEEKONK, Mass. — Seekonk police say they've arrested the Rhode Island man who exposed himself to three teens in the parking lot of a Seekonk Target in March.

Seekonk Police asked for help identifying the man caught on surveillance video and matching a sketch based on descriptions provided by the three teenage girls.

Eduardo Ramos Villagran, 39, matched the description, police said Tuesday.

On March 20, the teens went to Seekonk Police to report that while they were in Target that night, they noticed a man watching them from a distance. When they went to check out, they said the man was still watching them.

The girls got into their car and then saw the man in front of their car exposing himself. After yelling that they were going to call police, the man ran away.

The man was described as a possibly Hispanic man, with a medium build, about 5'6" tall. He was wearing a knit cap, dark-colored jacket and khaki pants.

Police say Villagran was identified as matching the description and when he was shown surveillance images, admitted that it was him.

According to police, he was also wearing the same clothes captured in surveillance images and had a receipt from Target showing a purchase at 6:12 p.m. on March 20.

Villagran was arrested in East Providence.
