A scuffle outside the Criminal Court building landed one man behind bars and a Cook County State’s Attorney’s office investigator in the hospital Wednesday afternoon in the Little Village neighborhood.
The investigator had just parked his department vehicle about 12:30 p.m. in the 2600 block of South California Avenue when he heard someone yelling and hitting the trunk of the vehicle.When he approached the man doing it, he identified himself as a law enforcement officer and the man punched him in the face and fled.
The investigator ran after him and an off duty Chicago Police detective saw the pursuit and was able to detain the man, Michael Daviston.
The investigator was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital because he suffered an injury to his left hamstring and back during the chase.
Daviston, 24, of the 1100 block of South St. Louis Avenue, was charged with one felony count of aggravated battery to a peace officer.
