MEDFORD, Ore. (AP) - Police are warning Medford residents to be wary of a smiling man with a Bible who recently was outside businesses seeking to shake hands with shoppers.
Police say he’s a 40-year-old sex offender who has used magazine sales in the past to grope women during good-luck hugs.
Lt. Mike Budreau says people may shake his hand or give him a hug not knowing he may be motivated by sexual gratification.
The Mail Tribune reports (https://bit.ly/1h9VjtF ) Curtis Eugene Fleming was recognized Saturday by a Jackson County Community Justice employee.
Fleming was arrested for failing to register as a sex offender.
