Montgomery County Police (MCPD) say 74-year-old Steven Hirsch Eisen of Silver Spring has been arrested for indecent exposure on multiple occasions.
In November 2020, officers began investigating several reports of indecent exposure occurring at various locations throughout Kensington. Victims reported that the suspect would get their attention and “expose himself” to them while in public areas. During the investigation, detectives say Eisen was identified as a suspect who possibly committed these crimes.
Police say the latest incident involving Eisen occurred on July 5, shortly before 6:00 p.m. Officers were dispatched to the 3900 block of Ferrara Drive in Kensington for the report of indecent exposure. The victims stated that they observed the suspect exposing himself to them and touching himself inappropriately in a public area. Eisen had fled the scene before officers arrived, according to an MCPD press release. The victims and witnesses provided responding officers with a physical description.
On July 16, officers from the 4th District Community Action Team obtained an arrest warrant for Eisen, charging him with the June 2 and July 5 indecent exposures. Eisen was arrested on July 20 and transported to the 4th District police station. There he was interviewed by detectives from the 4th District Investigative Section. During the interview, Eisen made statements acknowledging his involvement in the incidents. He was then transported to the Central Processing Unit, where he is being held without bond.
Detectives believe there may be additional victims who have not contacted police. Detectives urge anyone who has been a victim to call the 4th District Community Action Team at 240-773-5573.
