TINLEY PARK, IL — A 36-year-old Tinley Park man was arrested last month on a warrant after calling the police himself, according to a Tinley Park police report. The report states Daniel Cummings, of the 7500 block of 175th Street, called police to tell them his 15-year-old son had been drinking at a 175th Street condo.

When police arrived, the report states they could not find the son in the condo and that he apparently had already left the area.

While looking up information on Cummings, police said they learned he had an active arrest warrant from the Alsip Police Department for traffic offenses.
