Elusive Orland Park Wild Man Spotted By Cop, Escapes Into Yard: Police

An Orland Park woman called the cops on a wild man raising a ruckus on Holiday Court but the elusive figure slipped away through a yard when a cop arrived, police said.

The officer was sent over to Holiday Court to investigate a report of a “male subject shaking light posts, screaming, and urinating in bushes,” police said.

When the officer pulled up, he saw a thin, brown-haired man, about 6-feet-tall and wearing jeans and a T-shirt, police said. When the man saw the officer, he ran into a yard and vanished. The officer went looking for the man but was unable to track him down, police said.

The man damaged a light pole before he left and the officer reportedly found broken glass in a driveway.
