A prankster who exposed himself to a South Yorkshire Remembrance Sunday parade has been told he could face jail for his "disgusting act".
Ricky Robey, aged 20, stood at the window of his girlfriend's house on Morrell Street, Maltby, dropped his Y-fronts and pulled faces as the 100-strong procession of veterans, servicemen and women, and children passed at 11.30am on Sunday November 8.
At Rotherham Magistrates' Court the jobless plasterer, of Muglet Lane, Maltby, admitted outraging public decency.
District judge John Foster said the act was disgusting at the best of times - but that moment was the very worst.
He added: "Whether you intended it or not, it showed a marked and negligent disregard for what was an extremely solemn occasion at a time when this country has good and very recent cause to remember those in conflicts around the world.
"I regard this matter very seriously, I want a report from the Probation Service, prison is certainly an option."
