After a thorough investigation, Wendell Woodall, 46, of Fountain City, was arrested for performing sexual conduct in the presence of a minor and indecent exposure, the department said.
“This was a disgusting and criminal act against a child in a public place where families should feel safe. Let me be clear: If you target children in Richmond, we will come for you, we will arrest you, and we will see that you face justice. This case is now in the hands of the prosecutor’s office and the courts, and we, and our community, expect full accountability,” Police Chief Kyle Weatherly said.
Woodall is not booked in the Wayne County Jail at the time of writing.
