Orland Park Man Allegedly Followed And Photographed Woman He Believed Was A Celebrity

An Orland Park man jailed last week on a disorderly conduct charge allegedly followed and photographed a woman he believed was a celebrity.

Miguel Ochoa, 29, was arrested at the Megaplex in Homer Glen Feb. 15.

A man reportedly told police his sister called and told him a driver was following her and taking her picture. Shortly after, Will County deputies found Ochoa at the Megaplex. A Megaplex employee told the deputies Ochoa, who was not a member, asked to use the phone to call a cab, police said. The employee “felt (Ochoa) was acting sketchy.”

The deputies questioned Ochoa and he “became irate, using profanities and throwing his arms around,” police said. Also, the Megaplex employee reportedly wanted him off the business’ property.

Ochoa explained that he was following the woman in traffic and taking her picture because he believed she was a celebrity, police said. The police did not specify the celebrity Ochoa allegedly mistook her for.

Ochoa recently ran into trouble with the law for allegedly trespassing at Orland Park’s Alden Estates rehab center. He was supposedly at Alden Estates to see his grandma but instead took a special interest in a young woman working there and grabbed her near the buttocks in a bid to win her affections, police said.

Before that, police said, Ochoa had been ordered to stay away from Alden Estates

because he had been accused of stealing a cell phone.

A few months earlier, Ochoa allegedly dumped a cup of water on a manager at the Orland Park Buffalo Wild Wings. Ochoa was upset because Buffalo Wild Wings “food made him sick and he was forced to vomit outside the establishment,” police said, and the manager refused to comp him free food on a to-go order days afterward.
