A North Carolina man is wanted by police for committing a lewd and disturbing act at a local dollar store.
Thomasville, North Carolina, police are searching for a suspect after they received a call reporting a sexual assault at a local Dollar General.
According to Fox 8, the 28-year-old victim told police that she was waiting to check out with her two children, ages 6 and 7, when she felt a man brush up against her. She quickly realized that the man had ejaculated onto her as he passed by.
