NAPERVILLE, Ill. — On May 4, 2017 at approximately 7:23AM officers were dispatched to a report of a suspicious vehicle at a business in the area of River and Rickert Road. When officers attempted to stop the vehicle it took evasive maneuvers through the business parking lots in an effort to flee.
Officers did not pursue the vehicle.
Shortly thereafter officers saw a similar vehicle had driven through a fence and into a back yard near River and Rickert. Two subjects fled on foot from the vehicle.
Officers provided a description of the subjects over the radio and a perimeter was established in the area to contain the subjects. Residents in the area were notified via the Naper Notify system of our activities in the area.
One subject was apprehended a few blocks away, on foot, within a few minutes of fleeing from the vehicle. An extensive search involving a K9 officer was conducted in an effort to locate the second subject.
At approximately 09:18AM officers observed a subject matching the description of the second subject in the area of 1200 Rickert. He entered into a building in that area and was apprehended by officers inside without incident.
Further investigation revealed the car to be stolen from a victim in Woodridge. Charges were obtained against two subjects as a result of our investigation.

Note also that Naperville Police are warning of an increase of 20 car burglaries that match the M.O. of the Florida-based Felony Lane Gang. Be vigilant. Always lock your vehicle. Remove valuables. This time of year when vehicles are parked along the street or in parking lots while folks watch team sports and golf seems to attract burglars.
