Two Juveniles Arrested for Burglarizing Affluent Neighborhood

 Posted on August 18, 2012 in Theft

Last Friday August 10^th, two young boys were taken into custody after a neighbor noticed a burglary in process. It was around 12:40 that the police in Naperville were called to the 3500 block of Scottsdale Circle. Scottsdale Circle is south of the golf course of the well-off neighborhood of White Eagle.

The homeowner who made this discovery was not comfortable waiting for the police to appear. This good-neighbor chased and detained the vagrants but wasn’t able to hold them long enough to be taken into custody. Although the two escaped his grasp, he was able to provide a description that ultimately brought in the kids.

It took less than an hour for the Naperville police to call for outside assistance. They contacted the Aurora police and the DuPage County sheriff who provided more manpower and K-9 units. With that added help, the chase only lasted 30 more minutes until both the suspects were detained around 1:50 pm. One was on Schoger Road while the other was found near Bay Harbour Road in Naperville. Names have not been released due to the age of those apprehended.

Those kids under 17 that commit crimes in Illinois are often tried as juveniles barring five specific crimes which require charges to be brought as an adult. Yet, juveniles are required to retain the services of lawyers to defend their cases. If your child has been a part of a dangerous crime that has them in police custody, do not wait to contact an experienced Chicago juvenile crime attorney.
