Alleged Dadeland Mall Flasher Arrested: Police

The man who allegedly exposed himself several times outside the Dadeland Mall has been arrested, authorities confirmed.

Jose Antonio Gort, 26, was charged Tuesday with three counts of indecent exposure. His bond has been set at $4,500.

The first incident was reported the morning of Dec. 29 in the parking lot of the Saks Fifth Avenue, according to a Miami-Dade Police report.

The report said a woman was walking when Gort pulled up next to her, rolled down his window and elevated himself to expose his penis to her.

Similar incidents were reported on Jan. 9 and Jan. 30 in the Nordstrom parking lot.

"One of the witnesses was able to get the tag of the subject on one of the incidents, which led detectives to the home of Jose Gort," said Robin Pinkard with MDPD.

The victims said Gort exposed himself the same way, several times, but in different vehicles: a gold Cadillac SUV and a white Dodge Charger. Both vehicles are registered to his girlfriend. She helped police put him in a line up, where two of the three victims positively identified him.

Gort was transported to TGK Tuesday afternoon. He will face a judge Wednesday. It's unclear whether he has an attorney.
