The 26-year-old is charged with indecent exposure and open lewdness dating to June 5, police said.
A Phillipsburg man is facing indecent exposure and related charges after engaging in a sex act with another man in public, Easton police said.
Jacob E. Graves, 26, of the 400 block of South Main Street, at 11:09 p.m. June 5 allegedly was found by a city officer engaging in a sex act with another man. Graves at the time provided police with a false name and birth date, according to court records.
Police said they issued a warrant for Graves' arrest when a summons came back in the mail as not deliverable.
Palmer Township police on Sunday came in contact with a man who provided the same false name and birth date as Graves did on June 5 in Easton, police said. City police went to Palmer and confirmed the man at police headquarters was the same man who had been engaging in the sex act, according to records.
Graves then provided city police with his true identity and said the false name was the identity of his younger brother, police said.
Aside from indecent exposure, Graves is charged with open lewdness and providing false identification to law enforcement. Graves was arraigned before District Judge Joseph Barner, who set bail at 10 percent of $5,000.
In lieu of bail, Graves was taken to Northampton County Prison.
