For The ADDISON Independent

In the last issue of the Addison Independent (2/4/21 edition), there was a story about a teen who is being held in connection with a carjacking incident that took place at the Popeye’s restaurant in Addison. Since the story broke, another teen has been arrested.

On Monday, February 1, DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert B. Berlin and Addison Director of Police Bill Hayden announced that Judge Brian Jacobs ordered that a second Chicago teen charged with hijacking a woman’s car at gunpoint from an Addison Popeye’s restaurant parking lot will remain in custody until at least his next court appearance. The juvenile, who is 15 years old, is charged with one count of Aggravated Vehicular Hijacking (Class X Felony) and one count of Armed Robbery (Class X Felony).
