Aregistered sex offender allegedly tried to kidnap a woman and attacked
three others a day after he was released on bail, according to Chicago
officials.

Quavon Ewing, 32, reportedly tried to pull a woman into his car in the 200
block of South Sangamon Street on Sunday morning having been released from
custody on Saturday.

Fox 32 reported he also allegedly assaulted two women in the 100 block of
West Roosevelt Road before he attacked another in the 600 block of South
State Street.

According to the home security organization Safe Home, there are 33,019
registered sex offenders in the state of Illinois.

It added there were a total of 767,023 people who were listed on state sex
offender registers in the U.S. as of April 2022—a 2 percent drop from
2021.

The network reported Ewing allegedly wrapped his arms around the woman
during the Roosevelt attack before he let go when she bit him.

He is accused of having pushed the woman in the State Street attack into a
corner of Harrison Street station and then poured a bottle of urine on
her.

Chicago Transit Authority recognized Ewing based on a police alert and
then notified the department's mass transit unit.

Ewing was arrested in the Loop on Tuesday, according to Fox 32.

According to the Illinois Attorney General, Ewing is a registered sex
offender and was previously convicted of aggravated criminal sexual abuse
in Cook County.

Thomas James, who was in a rideshare nearby, heard the attack in South
Sangamon Street and shared his experience with Fox 32.

He said: "It was gut-wrenching, primordial even, immediately got our
attention. She sped over there, I jumped out of the vehicle and approached
the van screaming at the man."

James claimed Ewing threatened him with a screwdriver and said he would
kill him.

Just 48 hours before the attacks, Ewing entered the Englewood District
police station where he surrendered on an outstanding warrant for failing
to appear in court, Fox 32 reported.

Newsweek has contacted the Chicago Police Department for comment.

Earlier in September, a registered sex offender tried to kidnap and rape a
jogger in Tennessee, according to police.

Knoxville officers raced to Market Square after they were alerted to a
report that a woman had been assaulted by a man just after 7 a.m. on
Tuesday, September 6.

Bystanders quickly came to the assistance of the woman and she managed to
escape with only minor injuries. The suspect had fled the scene by the
time officers arrived.

Police later identified the suspect as registered sex offender Japa Goins,
34, and arrested him on suspicion of aggravated kidnapping and attempted
rape.
