Lehigh Valley Hospital surgical resident charged as alleged Muhlenberg College exposer

More than a month ago, Muhlenberg College police got the heads-up to be on the lookout for a shiny red car with a Maryland license plate.

The car's driver allegedly exposed himself to a student at nearby Cedar Crest College in late February, and officials there shared the information with Muhlenberg officers.

Two weeks ago, a Muhlenberg student told campus police that a man driving a red car followed her, called her over and exposed himself.

A shiny red car was spotted two more times at Muhlenberg after that, near the center of campus in the late afternoon when lots of students walk about, police said.

The last sighting of the car happened late Monday afternoon when a man exposed himself to a female student on a private driveway through student housing near the Harry C. Trexler Library on Chew Street, police said.

This time the student took down a license plate, police said, and a day later that led to the arrest of the suspect: a Lehigh Valley Hospital surgical resident who recently graduated from medical school.

Allentown police charged Jeffrey A. Zapora, 28, a member of the honors society at the University of Maryland Medical School and a first-year resident in plastic surgery at Lehigh Valley Health Network, with indecent exposure in two incidents at Muhlenberg. They said he might face additional charges as the investigation continues.

Zapora, who was sent to Lehigh County Jail under $5,000 bail but later posted bail, was suspended by the hospital pending further investigation, according to hospital spokesman Brian Downs.

University officials said only that Zapora attended the School of Medicine from 2010-14.
