Back in June, a man flashed two women on an N train - and the two women were able to track him down because his URL was on his jacket. The June incident had followed a May flashing where Kenneth Hoyt's sarong was "flapped open" on an R train. (He also left the train without any pants on.) The Post reports that Hoyt, a porn actor, whipped out "his prime professional asset" on a 6 train yesterday. Hoyt was arrested and charged with public lewdness, but by now, he's flashed multiple times. Isn't there a more serious charge the police can throw at him?
And by odd coincidence, Hoyt's last name is shared by another infamous subway flasher Dan "as seen on cameraphone" Hoyt.
