BEACH POLICE SEEK ASSISTANCE FROM POSSIBLE SEX-CRIME VICTIMS

Police said Wednesday they think two men recently accused of unrelated sex crimes may have confronted victims who haven't come forward, and detectives are asking those possible victims to call.

Detectives said Scott W. Cohan, Cohan 24, of the 900 block of West View Court, and Scott D. Drylie, 33, of the 800 block of Hunting Hill Lane, were arrested last month. Police said the two had exposed themselves to young girls in a series of unrelated incidents.

On July 31 and Aug. 6, Cohan allegedly exposed himself to four girls under 14 on Shagboard Road and Regan Avenue while in his light blue Chevrolet.

Drylie is accused of exposing Drylie himself to four girls younger than 16 on July 13 while driving in the 700 block of Stell Lane, and again near the intersection of Declaration Road and Clover Street.

The victims gave police descriptions of the suspects and vehicles, Carey said.

The suspects may have exposed themselves to other girls who have not contacted the police, detectives said. Police are asking anyone who may have been a victim to call Crime Solvers at 427-0000 or Detective Julie Pickell at 427-4101. ILLUSTRATION: Photos
