On April 17 at about 9:30 a.m., officers responded to a report of an indecent exposure in the 1500 block of Palisades Park.
Upon arrival, officers saw a subject, later identified as Donald Williams, sitting on a bench in the park. Officers saw Williams holding a pornographic magazine with one hand while holding his exposed penis with the other. Officers noticed there were other people within close proximity of Williams during this incident.
Officers made contact with Williams — who noticed them approaching and zipped up his pants so he was no longer exposing himself — and obtained his identification. Officers discovered Williams had a no-bail warrant issued from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department for arson.
Officers arrested Williams for indecent exposure, public nudity and the outstanding warrant. Williams was transported and booked at Santa Monica Jail. Williams was held without bail.
