CHICAGO — Police said they are questioning a suspect in the sexual assault of two women and a 14-year-old girl in separate incidents on the Far South Side Wednesday morning.

About 4:15 a.m., the man sexually assaulted two women inside their home in the 10300 block of South Emerald Avenue in Roseland, police said.

The women were taken to Little Company of Mary Hospital for treatment, police said. Their conditions and ages were not available.

Police said they believe the same man attacked a 14-year-old girl as she headed to a bus stop in Washington Heights about 6:40 a.m. The girl was walking to the stop when a man dragged her to a nearby yard in the 10000 block of South Peoria Street and sexually assaulted her, police said.

The teen was also taken to Little Company of Mary for treatment, according to police. Her condition was not available.

Police said they believe the attacker also was responsible for a home invasion in the 10100 block of South Green Street in Washington Heights about 5:30 a.m. No injuries were reported in the home invasion, police said.

Police described the suspect as a thin, 6-foot-tall black man in his 20s, weighing about 150 pounds. He has shoulder-length dreadlocks and was last seen wearing a black T-shirt, blue jeans and black gym shoes, according to police. 

Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to call detectives at 312-747-8271.
