A West Lawn man allegedly tried to sexually assault an off-duty CTA bus driver in a West Chatham Pizza Hut. Donell Booker, 30, appeared for a hearing Friday afternoon and was ordered held in lieu of $750,000 bail.
Booker entered the Pizza Hut in the 7900 block of South LaSalle at about 12:30 p.m. while drinking a beer, prosecutors said. "You miss me boo," he told the female victim, 46, who was waiting for her lunch order to be served. He then grabbed the woman's head, pulled it toward toward his groin and exposed his genitals, prosecutors allege. Booker continued to fondle her and follow her as she ran to the counter, where she called 911.
When authorities arrived, Booker would not cooperate until they let him finish his beer, according to prosecutors. They also said a surveillance camera captured the assault, and that the victim has identified Booker.
