A Venezuelan migrant was denied a pretrial release on Thursday amid allegations that he attacked at least two women near train stations in Chicago.
A Venezuelan migrant has been charged with sexually assaulting a woman earlier this month on the University of Illinois Chicago campus. Twenty-seven-year-old Elvis Hernandez-Pernalete, who also goes by Luis Guevara, allegedly followed the woman from the UIC-Halsted Blue Line Station around 8 p.m. on March 16, and tried to grab her from behind, FOX Chicago reported. He allegedly stole the victim's belongings and sexually assaulted her before fleeing.
On March 9, Hernandez-Pernalete was allegedly seen taking merchandise off clothing racks at a T.J. Maxx and putting it into his backpack, and then leaving the store. On Thursday, he was denied pretrial release by a judge, who cited his 'pattern of attacking victims from trains.' Fox News Digital has reached out to federal immigration authorities for comment.
