According to reports by STV, the victim said the man was 'acting strangely' and 'lurking' among the trees as he walked parallel to her, stopping when she stopped and taking the same route.

When she noticed him they had a 'weird stare-off' before he 'shuffled back into the trees'.

A spokeswoman for Police Scotland said: "At around 1.25pm on Friday November 15, officers attended Queens Park in Glasgow after a report was received relating to a man indecently exposing himself.

"Inquiries are ongoing. Anyone who was in the area of the park and saw or heard anything suspicious is asked to call police on the 101 number."
