A 32-year-old man accused of indecent exposure toward a group of pre-teen girls over a month ago in Rochester Hills, Michigan, turned himself in to police.

According to the Oakland County Sheriff's Office, the Auburn Hills man went to the Rochester Hills substation on Monday, Aug. 4, accompanied by his attorney. Authorities said he surrendered hours after they released a photo and video of him to the public. He spent Monday night in the Oakland County Jail, pending the court arraignment.

"I appreciate the public's help with numerous tips coming in after the suspect's photo was released," Sheriff Mike Bouchard said in a statement. "We look forward to this case moving forward in the days ahead." 

The man, identified as Brandon John Richardson, has now been formally charged with two counts of indecent exposure. A conviction on such a charge carries a penalty of up to one year in jail. He was arraigned Tuesday at 53-3 District Court in Rochester Hills, where the magistrate issued a $5,000 personal bond. 

A pretrial conference is scheduled for Aug. 27.

The sheriff's office said that at about 4 p.m. on June 29, the group of girls was outside the Shake Shack on North Adams Road when the man walked past them. As he lifted his shirt, the girls noticed the pants zipper was down and he exposed himself. 

The group told investigators that they moved in front of the Barnes & Noble Bookstore on the same street and saw the man again, where he exposed himself for a second time.

The girls yelled at the man, and he immediately walked away, running into a parking lot.
