Chicago police are looking for a man who allegedly raped a woman in Ronan Park.

On March 22 at 4:30 p.m., a man carrying a handgun approached a woman near the 3000 block of Argyle Street and took her to a secluded area by the riverbank, according to a community alert released by 17th District police. Police say the man is in his 30?s, black, 5?9?, 180 lbs, has short black hair and hair on his chin, and was wearing a gray sweatshirt and blue jeans.

Police encourage residents to walk in groups, be aware of their surroundings, and contact detectives at (312) 746-8282 if they have any information about the sexual assault.

    The police haven’t been patroling this neighborhood like they use to. This neighborhood isn’t all that bad but there is a gang presence and alot of vandalism to boot. Alot of car window’s have been broken and alot of mischief activity in the parks. This is a wonderful and diverse community, with all the parks it brings alot of people out when the weahter get’s better, but it alos brings outsiders and gang activity too! I think the police should stop focusing on their revenue aka writting tickets and start acting like police officers and get these criminals off the streets. there is a war brewing in albany park between latin kings(gold and black) and blackstones(red snd black), you can see it on the daily. DO YOUR JOB PROTECT AND SERVE!
