Berwyn Police Blotter
Wanted: more dads like this one
March 13, 2008, 11:30 AM
Police were dispatched to south Berwyn after a caller reported someone chasing a man northbound on Cuyler from the 3800 block of Ridgeland. There, they spoke with a 20-year-old woman, who told them her dad, age 43, was chasing her ex-boyfriend after spotting him in their back yard. Apparently, the 20-year-old Maywood man entered their yard and left a rose outside the young woman’s bedroom window, which was extremely creepy, since the woman has an order of protection against the young man and definitely does not want him around. The dad confirmed this account, explaining the young man has been told many times not to come to their house. The dad told police he chased the unwanted suitor, and also said he saw the young man’s car parked in the 3700 block of Cuyler. Police towed the Chevy Malibu.
Later, when the rose-bestower came to the Berwyn police station to claim his towed Chevy, he was arrested and charged with criminal trespass.
