Waterloo Police say there have been several reports of a suspicious male or males in the University Avenue West and King Street North area, dubbed the University District, lurking between homes and looking through windows since early April.

The police report highlights the dates of the incidents and areas in which the police are investigating.

Meanwhile, the Twitter account Spotted at Laurier recently shared an image of a man alleging he was engaging in lewd activities outside someone's home. Waterloo Police responded to note they are actively investigating the incident.

Although each incident is being investigated separately, investigators are trying to assess if all of them are related. In some cases, the suspect was described as a six-foot-tall white man aged between 20 and 30 with a thin-to-medium build. Other incidents do not have a suspect description.
