A 47-year-old man was charged with assault Monday night after turning himself in to Evanston police.

The Evanston resident had been arguing with his female relative outside a residence in the block of 2100 Wesley Avenue on March 22 when he noticed a 59-year-old man videotaping them, Dugan said. The man who was videotaping reported that the two stopped arguing with each other and screamed at him, Dugan said.

The 59-year-old man reported that they chased him into his house on Wesley Avenue, but he was able to shut the door before they came inside.

The 47-year-old man was charged with misdemeanor assault and is scheduled to appear at the Skokie Courthouse on April 18. His female relative was charged with misdemeanor assault on March 23 and is also scheduled to appear in court on the same day.
