从路边黑暗处冲出两名神色慌张的华人女子，拦截警车边哭边叫救命，警官见状下车了

据芝加哥第九警分局向本报记者透露，事发现场是33街与瓦利斯街(Wallace St.)
附近，两名被迫卖淫华女分别为26岁和37岁，警官表示，她们逃离被禁锢民宅后，正好
碰到巡逻警车经过，冒死唿救。警官了解情况后，除了协助安置两华女，同时由联邦调
查局(FBI)接手调查，循线逮捕涉嫌非法禁锢华女卖淫的53岁华男陈松林(Song Lin
Chen，音译)，另一同伙王伟(Wei Wang，音译)目前仍在逃。
第九警分局30日表示，陈松林目前已被联调人员以「贩卖人口」、「非法禁锢」、
「强迫卖淫」等联邦重罪关押，若罪名成立，最高可判处终身监禁。
据警方报案纪录显示，两名分别为26岁、37岁的华女，10月13日晚约8时左右，突
