Chicago police say they are questioning a person of interest in connection with an attempted kidnapping in the West Loop over the weekend.
The man walked up to a 45-year-old woman, grabbed her arms and tried to pull her into a van about 8:45 a.m. Sunday as she walked south in the 200 block of South Sangamon Street, police said.
The woman yelled and fought off the man, and a nearby passenger of a ride-hailing service confronted him. The man fled in a maroon van, which police later recovered, authorities said.
He was described as Black, between 30 and 40 years old, about 5-foot-10 and bald, according to police. He was wearing a white sweatshirt, light blue pajama pants and black gym shoes.
