According to police a man, Austin Ekberg, 21, was parked in a dark-colored SUV in the parking lot of Crimson Ridge in the 700 block of North Perryville Rd. Police say that was near a business where Girl Scouts were selling cookies on March 5th.

Detectives with Rockford's Sensitive Crimes Unit say the Girl Scouts approached Ekberg's SUV but they saw he had his pants pulled down, exposing his genitalia. According to police, he was "engaged in an act of self-gratification".

I honestly don't know what to say right now. Other than this is disgusting.

I feel terrible for these girls.
