Obscene Man, Naked Vomitting Man, Reported in La Grange

Dog returned to owner, woman finds her car with two tires flattened in parking garage, and more, in the La Grange police blotter.

A 19-year-old Northlake woman told La Grange police at about 6:45 p.m. March 6 that about an hour before, she was in the Cold Stone Creamery, 76 S. LaGrange Road, with a friend when she saw a man outside, staring in the window and touching himself. She stayed inside until the man left. The man was about 30 years old, wearing a dark blue knit cap, dark blue jacket and last was seen walking south.

LaGrange police found a 25-year-old Carterville, IL, man living in a garage that had been converted into an apartment in the 1000 block of south LaGrange Road after a neighbor reported seeing  a naked man walking outside there at about 3:13 a.m. March 5. The neighbor said a completely naked man had walked to a trash container, vomited, returned to the garage and entered it. Police were to contact the La Grange Building Department because the converted apartment did not have a bathroom.

A La Grange Park woman told La Grange police that when she returned at about 9:42 p.m. March 5 to her Honda Odyssey parked on the second level of the village parking garage, 80 S. 60th Ave., she found two tires had been flattened. She said she planned to return in the morning to get her car.
