A Huntsville man wearing nothing but a camisole, tutu and heels has been charged with indecent exposure after allegedly displaying himself in front of a cosmetology school.

Richard J. Staples, 51, is accused of approaching the Regency Beauty Institute, 19770 North Freeway in Spring at 2:35 p.m. Thursday, according to Harris County Precinct 4 Constable Ron Hickman's office.

Several women at the business told investigators that a man exposed his genitals and buttocks outside the shop and then returned to his red pickup.

One of the women caught a portion of the incident on video, which enabled deputies to learn the truck's license plate number. The number led them to Staples, who was later named as a suspect after witnesses identified him in three separate photo spreads, the constable's office said.

Staples is charged in Harris County Court No. 8. No information about his case schedule was immediately available online.
