Sexual assault suspect pawned two PlayStations stolen from victim in Auburn Gresham attack, prosecutors said

A 53-year-old man who sexually assaulted his neighbor at gunpoint after bursting into her home and forcing her into a bathroom fled her home with several items including two PlayStation systems, prosecutors said Wednesday during his first hearing after being charged in the attack.

During the hearing, a Cook County judge ordered Calvin Lindsey detained and prosecutors laid out details of the Friday morning assault in the 7700 block of South Racine Avenue.

The attack began shortly after the 19-year-old woman had returned into her apartment after taking her dogs out to the backyard. When she came back inside, where she was home alone, she locked the back door before going to her bedroom and closing the door, prosecutors said in court.

About 10:35 a.m., Lindsey burst into her home through the back door, wearing a navy jacket with its hood up, black pants, red and white gym shoes, a baseball cap with a red bill and a face mask that looked like a medical or painters mask, prosecutors said.

He barged into her bedroom and asked her for money before forcing her to go into a bathroom, where he sexually assaulted her, prosecutors said.

Lindsey then ransacked her apartment, taking off with several items including two gaming systems, prosecutors said.

Lindsey, who fled the apartment about 11:07 a.m., was spotted on ring camera footage leaving with a backpack and a white garbage bag, prosecutors said. He was later found to have taken two game stations, the 19-year-old's cell phone, purse and another person's gun, prosecutors said.

About noon, an individual wearing the same "distinctive" shoes and hat was captured on a bank camera video getting out of a black SUV, removing a white bag and backpack from the truck of the car before entering Ashland Pawners and Jewelers, prosecutors said.

The shop, at 1543 W. 47th St., provided records of Lindsey pawning two play station gaming systems, and he was identified in a photo array, prosecutors said.

The 19-year-old who does not know Lindsey, immediately out-cried to her mother and to a roommate. She was taken to a hospital by paramedics. The woman told ABC7 that she waited more than four hours for police to arrive after she called 911 multiple times.

Lindsey, of the Auburn Gresham neighborhood, is due back in court on Monday.
