The police were called but the man made off before they arrived.

A local community page on Facebook 'warned' parents not to let youngsters walk alone in the area.

Rabbit Braes Development Group said on Facebook: 'Just a word of warning. A naked man was seen up in the 'horsey' field this afternoon.

'He started walking around in front of/towards two teenage girls. Police were called, but they were unable to catch him.

'Please tell your children to be safe if they are out and preferably not to walk around alone.'   

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: 'Around 4.50pm on Wednesday, 24 June, we received reports that a man had exposed himself to two women in the Rabbit Braes area of Kirkcaldy.

'Enquiries are ongoing and anyone who may have information can call 101.'   

Detective Duncan Thompson of Central Fife CID added: 'This was a very distressing incident for the girls involved and although they were not physically harmed they have been left shaken.

'We are eager to trace the man responsible as soon as possible and I would appeal to anyone who may know who this is or may have any information to get in touch.

'There would have been other people in the Rabbit Braes area at the time of the incident, and we are appealing for anyone who thinks they saw this man or anyone acting suspiciously in the area to get in touch with us.'
