Police: Man Stalking 16-Year-Old Girl On Southwest Side

(STMW) -- Chicago Police issued an alert Tuesday warning Southwest Side residents of a man stalking a teenage girl.

The suspect approached the 16-year-old girl twice in the last two days and told her he had been watching her and could give her a ride, according to a community alert issued by Area Central detectives.

The incidents both happened between 7:30 and 7:40 a.m., the first time in the 6600 block of South Springfield on Monday and the second in the 6300 block of South Springfield on Tuesday.

The suspect is described as a 38 or 39-year-old Hispanic man with a light complexion, police said. He was wearing a black knit cap, a dark blue collared shirt and a black jacket.

He drives a black SUV, possibly a Jeep, with an Illinois license plate, possible family car sticker decals on the lower left black window and a Blackhawks logo on the lower right back window.

Anyone with information is asked to call detectives at (312) 747-8380.
