Police say the victim was asleep in her bedroom at the Eagle Creek Apartments early Thursday morning when a man broke in, woke her up and threatened her with a gun before sexually assaulting her. But he was also apparently intent on robbing her, forcing her to drive to an ATM and withdraw money for him.
"It was a very traumatizing event. She was very cooperative with our investigation. She provided many details of the crime, and of the horrific nature of the crime," said Westmont Police Dep. Chief Jim Guenther.
The man made the woman drive at gunpoint in her own vehicle to a TCF Bank branch in Willowbrook, where she withdrew several hundred dollars to give him. Then he had her drive to the intersection of 83rd and Janes in Woodridge, where he got out.
Neighbors say this is generally a safe place to live, but many are concerned for the victim.
