CHICAGO (CBS)-- A man impersonating a police officer forced a woman into his vehicle at a West Side Austin neighborhood bus stop on Sunday morning, then drove to west suburban Cicero and raped her, police said.

The 36-year-old woman was waiting for a bus in the 1800 block of North Cicero Avenue about 6 a.m. Saturday when a man approached and identified himself as a police officer, according to a community alert from Area North detectives.

He is described a white Hispanic, 30-34, 5-foot-7 with a heavy build and black hair.

He was wearing a green Polo T-shirt, black sweatshirt with zipper, light gray cargo pants and black shoes. He was driving a white vehicle with a possible partial plate of 7223.
