He will have his next pre-trial hearing on Feb. 6. He was given an OR bond, and he will wear a home monitoring device.

He was charged after Middletown police said they believe Smith had been following females in his car and exposing himself, according to Maj. Scott Reeve.

On Jan. 6, a female mail carrier reported a heavyset man in an orange car was sitting in the car masturbating as she delivered mail on Barnitz Street.

In a Jan. 16 report, a parent reported his daughter got off the school bus on Malvern Street and a man in a orange vehicle followed her. When the car passed her and began to turn around, the girl said she took off running.

A parent also reported on Jan. 18 that a suspicious man followed her home down Henry Avenue and made her feel uncomfortable, according to the police report.
