BERLIN (Reuters) - A German flasher exposing himself to a woman in a forest
was forced to run for cover when she set her three small pug dogs on him,
police said on Friday.

Police in the southern town of Straubing said the man, who was about 30, was
naked when he surprised the 55-year-old woman with the dogs.

"He had Bermuda shorts and a T-shirt in one hand and his private parts in
the other," said police spokesman Klaus Pickel.

The woman spurred the lap dogs into action, one of which bit the man on the
calf before he fled through the trees. "The dog was too small to bite him
anywhere else," said Pickel. The man is still on the loose.
