Saskatoon police have charged a 33-year-old man after finding him allegedly exposing himself while holding several syringes.

The incident happened at about 2:40 p.m. CST on Sunday at a downtown parking garage on the 100 block of 1st Avenue South, according to a police news release.

Officers found the man unclothed as he climbed into a small space near a stairwell in the parking lot. The man appeared to be high on drugs, according to police, and was behaving erratically.

Police say he had several syringes in both of his hands and made "motions" toward the officers and himself. The officers then deployed a Taser, but the suspect refused to drop the syringes and a second Taser attempt was successful.

The 33-year-old was then arrested and taken to hospital where he was treated for minor injuries.

He has been charged with indecent exposure, breach of probation and also had an outstanding warrant for breach of probation.

He is scheduled to appear before a Justice of the Peace on Monday afternoon.
