A 48-year-old man has been charged after he was seen allegedly entering and leaving a Sydney petrol station naked.

Police have issued him with a Field Court Attendance Notice for the offence of wilful and obscene exposure in a public place.

CCTV footage showed a naked man casually walking up to the counter at an Edgecliff BP last week in nothing but a pair of thongs and sunglasses.

He’ll appear in Downing Centre Local Court on February 25.
