Two 14-year-old girls were walking eastbound on Nadine Avenue approaching Central Avenue at 7:21 a.m. when they heard some rustling in the bushes of a front yard they were passing. When they looked in that direction they saw a partially clothed man, standing in the bushes, exposing himself to them. Both girls ran to a nearby house and notified police.
The suspect, who has not been identified, was described as a white male adult in his 30s, thin build with brown medium hair. He was wearing a grey sweatshirt with a white T-shirt.

TRAFFIC STOP NETS POT: CERES - A 20-year-old Modesto man went to jail Oct. 22 after he was pulled over in a traffic stop and the officer smelled marijuana coming from the vehicle.
Jose Venatas was pulled over at Caswell and Sixth streets at 10:51 p.m. for a traffic infraction. The officer smelled the strong smell of marijuana and during a search found 11 grams of marijuana on his passenger.
Because Venatas was found to be driving without a license, his vehicle was towed. The trunk yielded a backpack filled with a large plastic baggie containing five bags each containing one ounce of pot. Another larger baggie contained two ounces of marijuana, said Police Division Commander Mike Borges. Cash and a pocket scale was also found, giving police cause to arrest him for possession of marijuana for sale.
The juvenile was also arrested.
