Lincoln Park police say they have arrested one of the two men wanted in connection with the kidnapping and sexual assault of a woman in a Walgreens parking lot last week.

Police earlier released surveillance photos of the two suspects involved in the incident. 

According to police, the suspects pulled a gun on the woman and approached her as she was parked at a drug store around 9 p.m. on Wednesday, March 30.

They then got into her car and drove around with the victim, and "periodically took turns raping her," police say.

We're told they pulled a gun on her, but let her go because the younger suspect needed to be home by 10 p.m. as a requirement of his tether.

Police responded and took the victim to the hospital to be checked out.

Officials are still looking for a second suspect in the case. 

Anyone with information is asked to call Lincoln Park police at 313-381-1800.
