2nd Prostitution Case At Elmhurst Hotel: Cops

ELMHURST, IL – Elmhurst's Clarion Inn on Tuesday saw its second prostitution case in the last six months, police said.

Police said a 45-year-old Wood Dale woman was found soliciting for prostitution at the hotel, 933 S. Riverside Drive.

Her boyfriend, a 46-year-old Blue Island man, and friend, a 31-year-old Orland Park woman, were found with crack cocaine, police said.

The 45-year-old woman was charged with prostitution and wanted on a Cook County warrant.

The other two suspects were charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia. The 31-year-old woman was also charged with obstructing identification.

The trio were taken to the DuPage County Jail.

In September, a man was accused of inviting two female prostitutes to his room at Clarion Inn, police said.

While they were listening to music, one of the women took his phone to change the song, but then used it to access Venmo and Zelle to transfer money from his account, police said.

Police reports indicated that officers also responded to cases involving prostitution in August and November at Extended Stay America hotel, 550 W. Grand Ave.

Both hotels received chronic nuisance warnings from the city last year.
