GILBERT, Ariz. (AP) - Police in Gilbert say they've arrested a man who allegedly exposed himself to a female jogger.

Police say 19-year-old Derrius Kelly was taken into custody Tuesday on suspicion of indecent exposure.

The incident reportedly occurred on Dec. 27.

Police had asked for the public's help finding the suspect, who was was photographed riding a red mountain bike in the area of Higley and Frye roads.

Last week, Gilbert police say they received an anonymous tip that a man fitting the suspect's description was seen in the area of Power and Germann roads in Gilbert.

That tip led officers to Kelly. Police say the shoes, shorts and sweatshirt the alleged flasher was wearing in last month's incident have been recovered.

Police didn't immediately know Tuesday night if Kelly had an attorney.
