A Lansdale woman has been charged with indecent exposure after she was allegedly found walking near Lansdale Borough Hall without any clothes on from the waist down.
At 2:21 p.m. on June 16, Lansdale Borough Police were dispatched to the area of 1 Vine Street for a report of a female walking semi-nude with no clothing from the waist down. Dispatch reported multiple people had called about the woman, and once outside, police reported multiple bystanders pointing towards the female, who was ultimately located in the area of Montgomery Avenue and Pellette Street, according to charging documents.
The woman was identified from prior police contacts as 35-year-old Gloria Harpel.
Police said Harpel initially stated that she had taken off her pants and thrown them down a storm drain, though she later made different statements regarding what happened to her pants, including that snakes had eaten them. The report describes Harpel as sweating profusely with constricted pupils, and adds she was making “nonsensical outbursts.”
Harpel was taken into custody at 2:30 p.m. In addition to the indecent exposure charge, Harpel was also charged with summary counts of public drunkenness and disorderly conduct, court records show.
She was arraigned later that evening by District Judge Katherine McGill, who set bail at $77 cash, indicating a probation or parole detainer had been filed.
Harpel is currently in custody at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility, and her next court appearance is a preliminary hearing on July 13 at 11 a.m. in front of District Judge Ed Levine.
