(Cass Co) A Waukee man turned himself in to the Cass County Sheriff’s Office on a warrant for Indecent Exposure.
On November 5th, the Cass County Sheriff’s Office made contact with a female truck driver who reported she had been a victim of a sex offense while traveling on Interstate 80. She told Deputies that she was traveling east on I-80 near the 57 mile marker when a male subject, operating a black Ford F-150, pulled alongside her. The male matched the speed of the reporting party and began exposing himself and his genitalia to her while traveling. This took place off and on for approximately 30 to 40 minutes. Once the male realized that the reporting party was contacting the police, he sped off.
This male, later identified as 38-year-old Shawn Assman, of Waukee, was arrested for continuing this incident into Dallas County. During the investigation, the Cass County Sheriff’s Office worked with the DeSoto Police Department to find that Assman had admitted to masturbating twice before his arrest. With the victim’s statements along with corroborating evidence from DeSoto Police Department, Assman was charged with Indecent Exposure and a warrant was signed for his arrest.
On November 7th, Assman turned himself in on this warrant and subsequently bonded out.
