CHICAGO (WLS) -- Chicago police are looking for a man they said tried to sexually assault a woman, severely injuring her, in her own Rogers Park apartment building last month.

CPD just released two surveillance photos of the person they are looking for, showing a man between 35 and 45; about 5-feet, 8-inches to 5-feet, 9 inches tall; weighing 120 to 130 pounds; wearing a white shirt, with black square lettering on the sleeves, white pants, white gym shoes and a black baseball cap worn backward; and he had his right arm in a sling.

CPD said on May 11, at around 4:45 p.m., a woman was in the laundry room of her building in the 6900-block of North Greenview Avenue when the suspect got inside and tried to sexually assault her.
