Bucktown sex assaults may be connected

February 6, 2009 (CHICAGO) (WLS) -- Chicago police say they think a pair of sexual assaults in Bucktown may be connected.

In the latest attack, a man raped a woman as she walked to a CTA Blue Line station in the city's Bucktown neighborhood. Police say she was attacked Monday at knifepoint and forced into a gangway in the 2300-block of West Moffat Street.

The attacker is not in custody.

Police suspect the same man may have been involved in a sexual assault at Marshfield and Wabansia Sept. 26.
