An Ooltewah man has been arrested for allegedly exposing himself to a Cleveland High School student at Cleveland’s Greenway Park near the school.

Nathaniel M. Sepulveda-Irizarry, 26, of Dolly Pond Road in Ooltewah was freed April 14 on a $20,000 bond, Sgt. Robert Jones at the Bradley County Sheriff’s Office said via phone.

According to a Cleveland police affidavit filed in Bradley County General Sessions Court, Sepulveda-Irizarry was allegedly seen by a high school student who had been dropped off April 1 at the Greenway Park on Raider Drive, on the opposite side of the road from the high school.

According to the statement given to the investigating officer, the student, 16, was walking from the park toward the school when a man spoke from a black pickup truck with dark-tinted windows, the affidavit said.
