Man Charged in Forest Preserve Sexual Assault

Victim was grabbed near Maywood as she walked home last Friday, Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart said

A Chicago man was charged Friday with attacking a teen as she walked home from a school event a week ago, Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart said.

Kevin Tillman, of the 4900 block of West Adams Street, faces charges of aggravated criminal sexual assault and unlawful restraint.

The teen was walking westbound, alone, on Madison Street last Friday when Tillman forced her into a nearby forest preserve and sexually assaulted her, Dart said.

The sheriff said the teen was walking because she missed a ride home. He said the investigation revealed Tillman followed the teen from the Forest Park train station.

Anyone with information about the attack should call the sheriff’s police at 708-865-4896.
