A Hillsborough County fire medic is facing criminal charges for allegedly exposing his genitals to women. The defendant, 29-year old Julio Colon from Spring Hill, is accused of driving his vehicle up to the front of a school and yelling at a female jogger passing by. Colon got the woman's attention and she saw him standing next to his vehicle completely nude. She took off inside of the school to contact the authorities.
On a second incident, Colon allegedly drove up next to a 16-year old girl walking home. He started following her, yelled to get her attention and then exposed his naked body. The defendant drove off, but not without the teenage victim obtaining Colon's license plate number.
It took a few days, but the police tracked down Colon and the teen was able to pick the defendant out of a lineup. He admitted to officers that he exposed himself to women in several different instances and got a "rush" from the experience. He is charged with two counts of exposure of sexual organs.
Colon started with the Hillsborough Fire Rescue on April 17, 2006, without receiving disciplinary actions. He has been placed on administrative leave with pay pending the outcome of the criminal investigation. Colon has not yet posted the $2,000 bond and awaits trial inside the Hernando County Jail.
