CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- Police are looking for a man who's been throwing urine in the faces of people walking their dogs in the Andersonville neighborhood.
One woman who had urine thrown in her face and said the man had a look of rage in his face.
Two victims spoke to CBS 2.
“He had a large cup in his hand, and just as he was passing me, threw the contents of it into my eyes," said Katie Lyons. "And I yelled for help, just because my eyes were burning, and I couldn’t see, and I dropped my phone.”
A woman who only wanted to be identified as Sue was also attacked last week while walking her dogs and said she is still shaken by the experience.
“He’s been menacing for quite a while,” Sue said.
She said the man who attacked her actually then went to the police station himself to file a complaint against her and told police she set her two dogs loose on him.
Alderman Andre Vasquez believes this has been going on since summer and incidents have gone unreported.
“We have neighbors on the block with seeing-eye dogs. We don’t want this to happen to anyone, but God forbid it happens to someone who needs their service animal,” Vasquez told CBS 2. “We want to make sure this is being handled expeditiously and that we get a resolution soon
He’d like to hear from anyone who’s had it happen to them.
