Police said a woman walked past a blue sedan at Marmion Reserve on Marmion Street, an area used by footballers and netballers, about 12.45pm on Sunday September 17.

A person nearby then began calling out to a man in the driver’s seat of the car, with police believing he was committing an indecent act.
