A man from Queens, New York was put behind bars recently after he was accused of lewdly exposing himself at a public pool.

Per ABC 7, authorities say the incident took place on Sunday at the Forest City Park Pool in Wantagh, New York, just a little before 5 p.m.

Law enforcement officers revealed that an underage lifeguard reported seeing Wilson Kenney (33 years old) rub his crotch area and then expose himself while he was sitting on a bench in the park.

Following a brief investigation, Kenney was arrested without incident and charged with "public lewdness."

Per New York State Law, "Public lewdness is a class B misdemeanor," and it carries a fine of $245.00

It's defined as, "A person is guilty of public lewdness when he intentionally exposes the private or intimate parts of his body in a lewd manner or commits
any other lewd act (a) in a public place, or (b) in private premises
under circumstances in which he may readily be observed from either a
public place or from other private premises, and with intent that he be
so observed."

No word on how long Kenney remained in custody, but the state laws don't reflect a specific amount of time an offender must remain remanded to the custody of police so it's likely that the decision would have been up to the authorities or possibly a judge.
