8 Virginia men arrested for cruising at Locust Shade Park
”Obviously, we have some concerns about any individual that comes into our park that is loitering and not there for what we consider the normal use of the park…. Safety is absolutely our number one issue…. This is not an uncommon situation for any kind of park…. There is a tendency toward people misusing their privileges at a park.”
Dianne Cabot, of the Prince William County Park Authority in Virginia, speaking about the arrest of at least eight men at Locust Shade Park in the restrooms and parking lots. Charges reportedly include: solicitation for crimes against nature, criminal solicitation, indecent exposure, obscene sexual display. InsideNoVA.com has posted the men’s photos and names.
