CSU’s Public Safety Team sent out an email and text message alert following the incident, with limited information.
An unknown male suspect flashed the CSU employee in a restroom. He then attempted to block the exit to prevent her from leaving.
The suspect is described as a black male in his mid to late 30s. He is around 6 feet tall and was last seen wearing dark clothing, a black backpack and a baseball hat.

At this time, no additional information about the flasher is available, Dell Rae Ciaravola, public relations coordinator for CSU, wrote to the Collegian in an email.
