Officers in Swanage said the flasher had struck a number of times since December 6, and a week later exposed himself whilst wearing a Santa Claus outfit.
"I would be very interested to hear from anyone who may have seen someone acting suspiciously while dressed as Father Christmas in the Gilbert Road or surrounding areas of Swanage town centre," Police Constable Jonathan Maunder said.
"These incidents of indecent exposure have caused a great deal of upset to the women that the man has approached."

I suppose they'll be no more sitting on Santa's lap now?
It's been many years past, but I recall a story of some major retailer having quite a row because the Santa they'd hired was accused of inappropriate touching of several children as they were telling him their holiday wishes.
Turns out the guy was a known sex offender and had done several jail terms for related offences. Not exactly what you'd call good PR.
Couldn't this guy have at least waited until warmer weather? You know, maybe a little Easter celebration and a bunny suit. I’m certain the ladies he accosted would have been every much as outraged and revolted if he’d been dressed as the Easter Bunny, as they would over him dressed as Santa. After all, we all know Santa is male, but no one would ever expect the Easter Bunny to go about wagging his willy at passers by.
Christmas has such a bad rap these days anyway, I don't think it needs more help from the likes of him.
Easter however; no one ever really does anything seriously despicable during Easter. (Ruling out clergy of course.)
We already have marketers for Christmas, that's bad enough. Maybe we can convince the pervs to shift their attentions to Easter to help make things more balanced?
Well, I don't really think it may have success.
