JOLIET — A man told police he was the victim of “Booty call ninjas” early Friday.
According to reports, a 44-year-old man called police after getting jumped around 1:15 a.m. in the alley off the 300 block of Youngs Avenue.
“Upon arrival, officers found the man drenched in blood,” police said. “He said he’d called his ex-girlfriend and asked her to come over for sex. She agreed to come over.”
A short time later, Katherine M. Casarez, 29, allegedly texted the victim she was in the nearby alley and had him come out to meet her.
“As he walked to her vehicle a masked man jumped from the darkness yelling and swung a pair of nunchuks at him — hitting him in the head,” police said. “Casarez grabbed a second pair of nunchuks from her vehicle and hit him in the head as well.”
Paramedics took the man to Silver Cross Hospital for treatment after he identified his ex-girlfriend and her new boyfriend as his attackers. At the crime scene, police also found “two throwing stars — one stuck into a telephone pole” during their investigation. After officers found Casarez at her residence, 710 Clement St., she reportedly admitted to attacking her former lover with nunchuks.
She was booked into the county jail on charges of aggravated domestic battery, aggravated battery, unlawful use of a weapon and armed violence.
Police were also seeking a 34-year-old Joliet man for questioning Friday, reports said.
