The woman was standing at a bus stop about 6:20 a.m. on Dec. 1 in the 2200 block of West Chicago Avenue when Parkman approached her, punched her in the face and took her cellphone, police said.

He then pulled her into a gangway across the street and sexually assaulted her, police said.

Parkman was denied bond at a court appearance Sunday, according to Cook County Sheriff’s Office records. He was scheduled to return to court Tuesday.
