A 30-year-old Bradford man has been charged with committing a catalogue of sexual offences in Burley-in-Wharfedale.

He was arrested on Thursday on suspicion of sexual exposure on a train between Menston and Ilkley on January 26.

It followed a joint investigation between Airedale and North Bradford CID and British Transport Police.

He has since been charged with committing four offences of indecent exposure, one of sexual assault, another for common assault and a further charge for possessing cannabis between November 2009 and February this year.
