Naperville police on Tuesday appealed to the public for help in identifying a man suspected of having had “inappropriate contact” last month with a teenage girl on the city’s far southwest side.
Sgt. Bill Davis said detectives are investigating “a series of incidents involving a 15-year-old girl having inappropriate contact” with the man. The last incident occurred Sept. 26, Davis wrote Tuesday in a release.
The incidents occurred in the area of 95th Street and Route 59. That is just west of the campus of Neuqua Valley High School and the Napervile Public Library’s 95th Street facility.
Davis said images of the suspect were captured by a surveillance video camera at a nearby business the release did not identify.
The suspect is described as being a white man with tanned skin. He is about 40 years old, is tall, has a thin build, “and told the victim that his name was Joey,” the release stated.
He was last seen driving a white, four-door sedan of an unknown make and model. He also might own or be driving a blue Jeep sport utility vehicle.
Those who believe they know the man’s identity, or who think they have other information about the case, were asked to call the Naperville police investigations division, at 630-420-6276; or Naperville Crime Stoppers, at 630-420-6006.
