  1. Great work.

    Got their man.

    Surprising the K9 didnt catch him, but probably took a long time to bring a dog from Carpentersville.

    Sure curious what the “unrelated incident” was the next day that led to this guys arrest.

  2. I read a different article which stated incident was a call for assistance which ending up being suspect.

    He apparently had a ankle injury.

  3. My source is the police department.

    Maybe your more specific information is accurate.
