Loudoun Man Accused Of Masturbating In Public, Charged With Indecent Exposure

LOUDOUN COUNTY, VA – A Loudoun County man has been arrested after being accused of masturbating in his car while taking pictures of women, according to police.

Talha Yaqub, 58, of Chantilly, was arrested by Fairfax County police on Tuesday and charged with simulated masturbation and indecent exposure. Police say after an initial accusation in June, officers saw him masturbating in a car in November.

According to a release from the Fairfax County Police Department, officers responded to a report of indecent exposure on the 13000 block of Route 50 in Chantilly on June 1 at about 10 a.m. There, two women told them a man was masturbating inside his car and taking photographs of them. The man had left the area before officers arrived.

Police say they identified Yaqub as the suspect using photographs a witness provided, and they issued a warrant for his arrest.

Around 4 p.m. Tuesday, an automated license plate reader recorded Yaqub’s car near the 2000 block of International Drive in Tysons. Officers responding to the area saw Yaqub masturbating inside his car, according to the release.

Yaqub was taken into custody and brought to the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center. He was released on a $1,000 bond. He is scheduled to appear in court on Monday and has an adjudicatory hearing set for Dec. 10.
