Oh, okay. That's better.

New details have emerged about a situation in which Chicago police believed they interrupted a sexual assault in progress on the South Side earlier this week. 

Cops responding to a call of a sexual assault in progress in the 9600 block of South Chappel around 8:50 p.m. Monday found a 24-year-old woman being attacked, according to a CPD media statement, which said the victim had been sexually assaulted. The officers detained the alleged assailant, 19-year-old Keenan Jackson, at the scene.

“I wasn’t trying to rape her, I was trying to kill her,” Jackson told the officers, according to his CPD arrest report.
