New photos show man suspected of trying to kidnap girl near Chicago grocery store
Chicago police are looking for a man suspected of trying to kidnap a 9-year-old girl in West Rogers Park Wednesday morning.
CHICAGO - A 20-year-old West Rogers Park man was arrested Monday for allegedly trying to solicit two females and kidnap a 9-year-old in separate incidents this August.
Police said Terran McKethan solicited a 13-year-old girl and her 50-year-old mother for sex around 10 p.m. on Aug. 14 in the 6600 block of North Damen Avenue.
Prosecutors said the girl and her mother were walking on Damen Avenue, returning home, when McKethan approached them and asked if they wanted to have a threesome among other solicitations.
The following day, the girl, her sister and her mother were walking in the neighborhood when McKethan approached them again and followed them home. He then tried to open their door. They called Chicago police, but McKethan had fled the scene.

McKethan allegedly grabbed the girl as her grandmother turned to get a shopping cart. He started running away with her and let her go roughly a block away when she began screaming and bit McKethan on the hand, prosecutors said.

He was charged with one count of indecent solicitation of a child and one count of aggravated kidnapping.
McKethan is being held without bail and is scheduled to appear in court next on Sept. 12.
