NAPERVILLE, IL — Naperville police allowed a woman to kiss and touch a 13-year-old boy in the backseat of a police cruiser, according to a lawsuit filed on behalf of the boy. The lawsuit against the police department was filed in U.S. District Court in Chicago on April 19, the Naperville Sun reported. According to the lawsuit, the incident occurred on Halloween 2014 near the 200 block of Westbrook Circle in Naperville.

The suit states that police ordered the boy into the police car while he was with other children, and then the woman in question was placed in the back of the same vehicle. The woman then "undertook sexually suggestive and aggressive actions," on the boy, which included kissing his face and neck, "touching and rubbing him upon his inner thigh and genital area, and taking 'selfie' photographs of herself" and the boy, according to the suit. It says the woman was given an opportunity to act in a "wholly inappropriate and harmful way."

The lawsuit also claims there were police in the vicinity of the vehicle while the incident occurred but failed to protect the minor. Additionally, as reported by the Naperville Sun, the suit asserts that the young boy was the only African-American in the group of children and was the only one ordered into a police vehicle. Ed Fox, the lawyer who filed the suit of the boy's behalf, wrote in the suit that "'reasonable suspicion' and/or legal cause to detain" the boy was absent. He also said a video was taken during the incident and wants a judge to force the city to release the video.
