Harvey Police Investigate Multiple Sexual Assaults at Chicago Hospitals

The Harvey Police Department is investigating multiple allegations of sexual misconduct and assault involving a male healthcare worker, described as a white man aged 37 to 40, who is believed to have worked at University of Chicago Ingalls Memorial Hospital and possibly other medical facilities. The investigation began with reports from patients alleging unwanted physical contact and inappropriate behavior during medical treatment, with police suspecting multiple victims and ongoing incidents across various healthcare centers in the Chicago area. Authorities are actively seeking additional victims and witnesses, urging anyone with relevant information to contact the police through their tip lines or email. University of Chicago Medicine has acknowledged the investigation but has declined further comment due to its active status, emphasizing cooperation with law enforcement. The suspect, described with distinctive physical features including black hair, brown eyes, and a connected mustache and beard, remains at large, and police continue to pursue leads to ensure community safety and victim support. This investigation coincides with financial challenges in the City of Harvey, although police detectives assigned to this case are not affected by recent furloughs.
