As CBS 2 Political Investigator Dana Kozlov learned Tuesday, the firefighter is still working.
Erik Zuma, 31, works out of a firehouse at 44th Street and Ashland Avenue in Back of the Yards. As a firefighter-EMT, he responds to medical and other calls for people in distress.
But we have learned earlier this month, Zuma was slapped with four felony counts of criminal sexual assault by force – accused of raping a woman he knows.
According to a court document, which we redacted to protect the victim’s identity, Cook County prosecutors said the assault happened in February – with much of it captured on Ring security video.
