OCEAN CITY, Md. (AP) - A Maryland county prosecutor has been charged with indecent exposure and disorderly conduct after police responded to a report of a nude man on an Ocean City hotel balcony.

Worcester County State's Attorney Beau Oglesby announced Monday that Edward Rollins III, his counterpart for Cecil County, was charged with two counts of indecent exposure and two counts of disorderly conduct.

Police took Rollins into custody Wednesday at the Clarion Hotel. He is charged with engaging in inappropriate behavior in two separate incidents last Tuesday and Wednesday.

A woman who answered the phone at Rollins' office Monday said the office had no comment.

Indecent exposure carries up to three years in prison and a $1,000 fine. Disorderly conduct is punishable by up to 60 days in jail and a $500 fine.
