Gaithersburg, MD – Officers from the Montgomery County Department of Police – 4th District Patrol have arrested and charged 31-year-old Steven Randolph with indecent exposure. Detectives have released a photo of Randolph and encourage anyone who may have been a victim of him to come forward.

At approximately 10:14 a.m., on Thursday, October 31, 2024, Randolph entered the Olney Ledo’s Pizza in the 3400 block of Olney Laytonsville Road, while employees were preparing to open the restaurant. After telling Randolph that they were not open at the time, the employee turned to see Randolph exposing himself in the middle of the restaurant. When the employee screamed, Randolph ran out of the restaurant.
