A 35-year-old Chicago man has been charged in at least two home invasions in the north suburbs, South Barrington police said Thursday.
A home invasion suspect was placed into custody after 2.5-hour police standoff in on Lexington Road , South Barrington police say. South Barrington police said they responded to a call in the Lakes subdivision around 12:45 a.m. Monday near Lexington Road for a report of a home invasion.
Residents told police they found the suspect inside their home. When they confronted him, the suspect tried to jump out of a window. Although residents tried to stop him by grabbing his shirt, the suspect managed to run away, South Barrington Police Chief Michael Garrison said. As police started searching for the suspect around 2:28 a.m., they heard glass break in a nearby home. Officers found residents running out of their house after the suspect reportedly ran up to the second floor in an apparent attempt to hide.
Police were already close by and heard the screams, as well. They responded quickly, getting the people and their pets out of the house.Police had little information to go on, and used drones and K-9 units to help as they attempted to get the suspect to surrender. After a two-and-a-half-hour standoff, they were able to take him into custody.If convicted of the home invasion charge, he may face six to 30 years in prison.
