Tinley Park police are searching for  both a man in his 20s who exposed himself to a 16-year-old girl Thursday and  also a man in his 60s who offered to walk home several elementary school students  Wednesday, officials said.

The teenager told police that a 20- to 30-year-old man drove up next to her Thursday while she was walking near 169th Street and Creekside Avenue,  Cmdr. Phil Valois  said. The man was trying to talk to her when she saw that he was fondling himself, police said.

Wednesday, a man between 60 and 70 years old was seen near Bannes Elementary School  in the 17000 block of Odell Avenue, approaching students after school. Valois said the man walked one child home and was last seen walking back to the school. He allegedly approached other students who said they did not know him and declined his offer.

The man was white and wore a denim hat and an orange shirt with the word "Sparks" on it, authorities said.

Anyone with information should call Tinley Park  police at 708-444-5368.
