The attacks are all within blocks along North Humboldt Boulevard in Logan Square. The same man is believed to be behind all three.

As CBS 2's Jermont Terry reported, the safety alert on the attacks has left both men and women in Logan Square stunned and saddened."People are commuting back to work, and so people are walking back from trains and buses - so it's definitely a high active spot," said Carissa Helke."It's disheartening, but I'm constantly worried about something like this all the time, just being a woman," Helke said.

"There's so many delivery drivers and construction people out there, he just wanted to like blend in and maybe make yourself not as noticeable," Helke said. All of the victims say the man wore a safety vest – similar to a delivery driver or a construction crew. "There's so many delivery drivers and construction people out there, he just wanted to like blend in and maybe make yourself not as noticeable," Helke said.
