A distraught lady reports indecent exposure involving her daughter. What should you do?

In this situation, notifying the police is the appropriate action because indecent exposure is a criminal offense that requires immediate attention from law enforcement authorities. As a security guard, you are not authorized to make arrests or take legal action against an individual. Instead, your role is to assess the situation, provide support to the distraught individual, and ensure that the matter is escalated to the proper authorities who have the legal power to intervene.

By advising her that you will notify the police, you are demonstrating empathy and a commitment to addressing her concerns while also following the appropriate legal protocols. The police have the training and resources necessary to handle cases of indecent exposure effectively, ensuring that the situation is dealt with in a safe and lawful manner. This approach helps ensure the safety of the child and assists in gathering the necessary evidence to support any legal actions that may need to be taken.
