Man Charged In Sex Assaults In Joliet, Channahon

CHICAGO (CBS) -- Authorities say a man who's been charged with two sexual assaults in Joliet and Channahon is also suspected in other assaults.

The Will County Sheriff's office says investigators pieced together information from a woman who says she was sexually assaulted Saturday while jogging in a Channahon Township forest preserve with another assault in Joliet from a few days before.

Authorities arrested Miguel Luna for driving on a suspended license and say he then confessed to both assaults.

The attack in Channahon occurred on a trail on Frontage Road under Interstate 55. The Joliet attack happened on Wednesday near the Brandon Road locks and Route 6.
