CONTENT WARNING: This article refers to an alleged act of indecency.
A man has been told to face court after he allegedly committed an indecent act in a Canberra library this week.
Officers were called to Gungahlin Library, which is on Hibberson Street in Gungahlin, at about 1:30 pm on Tuesday (8 April) after hearing a man allegedly committed an indecent act in the public facility.
Police spoke to staff and witnesses, then arrested a 48-year-old man from Ngunnawal in the Gungahlin shopping centre a short time later, an ACT Policing spokesperson said.
“He was taken into custody and will be issued with a summons to appear in court at a later date,” the spokesperson said.
“Witnesses to the incident have been provided support services.”
The man will face the ACT Magistrates Court later this year.
