One person was taken into custody late Saturday morning in connection with an attempted abduction on the campus of Northwestern University, according to police.
At around 9:45 a.m., a woman flagged down an Evanston police officer and explained that a man had tried to push her into his vehicle in the 600 block of University Place, authorities said in a news release. The woman said she was walking in the area when the suspect approached her and tried to get her into his SUV. However, she was able to get away.
Minutes later, two Evanston police officers spotted an SUV matching the description of the suspect's vehicle, which had been shared via police radio. Officers attempted to stop the vehicle, but the driver refused and led them on a"low speed chase" on Chicago Avenue to South Boulevard before eventually pulling over.
