A suburban Lombard man was arrested after authorities said he inappropriately touched a girl at a water park in Woodridge.
Ricky Karlic, 61, appear in court on Saturday morning on one count of aggravated battery in a public place, which is a Class 3 felony. Karlic was released from custody under conditions that he not contact the victim or anyone under 18 years old — or enter the water park in question.
According to a news release, Karlic allegedly “made physical contact of an insulting or provoking nature” by touching the victim’s buttocks with his hand while in the lazy river at the Cypress Cove Family Aquatic Park on Friday.
“The allegation that Mr. Karlic inappropriately touched a young girl at a public water park is extremely disturbing,” DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin said in a news release. “Today’s charge sends the message that in DuPage County we are committed to keeping our public recreational facilities safe for all to enjoy…”
Karlic’s next court appearance is set for Aug. 3.
