A 20-year-old man has been charged with sexual offences after reports multiple women had been inappropriately touched while exercising on footpaths in Buderim, Mountain Creek and Sippy Downs.

Investigations by the Sunshine Coast Criminal Investigation Branch led to the arrest of a 20-year-old Mountain Creek man on November 8 and he has since been charged with three counts of sexual assault.

He is due to appear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court on November 29.
