A teenager has been charged with sexually assaulting a 7-year-old girl in an incident which was witnessed during an online learning lesson.
Catrell Walls, 18, is charged with a felony count of predatory criminal sexual assault of a victim under 13, Chicago police said.
Walls was seen via an online learning application performing a sexual act with the child about 1:30 p.m. in the 200 block of East 89th Place, police said.
Officers responded to the home and took him into custody.
The girl was taken to Comer Children’s Hospital
Walls, who lives in West Chesterfield, is scheduled to appear in court for a bail hearing reports Fox 32 Chicago.
Remote learning allows children to be schooled from home amid the coronavirus pandemic.
However, last month, while a Milwaukee Public Schools class was being held via remote learning, a fatal shooting occurred in a 9-year-old student’s home.
In August in Indiantown, Florida, a teacher at Warfield Elementary watched a 10-year-old cover girl cover her ears as a domestic altercation unfolded in the girl’s home.
She muted the girl before the girl’s screen darkened.
The girl’s mother was shot repeatedly, allegedly by her ex-boyfriend, and later died at a hospital.
