CHICAGO — Officers say a Bolingbrook man and an unknown confederate adopted and carjacked a random driver in Chicago Garden earlier this 12 months.
“Pulling over a automobile, any random automobile, with a firearm stating that the [victim] would die is a menace to any individual and this [victim],” Decide Shauna Boliker wrote in a detention order Friday that can hold Jose Rios, 29, in jail pending trial.
Prosecutors informed Boliker {that a} 28-year-old man was driving round 4:30 a.m. on March 13 when he observed a grey Kia was following him. As he headed down the 3200 block of West 59th Avenue, he heard one thing that seemed like a gunshot and pulled over, officers stated.
When he did, the Kia pulled alongside him, and Rios, who was driving the Kia, informed him to get out of the automobile or he would die, in accordance with the allegations. One other man seated within the Kia’s passenger seat pointed a gun on the sufferer and ordered him to get out, once more telling him that he would die, officers stated.
The sufferer complied, and Rios’ confederate drove away together with his 2003 Chevy Tahoe, prosecutors stated.
A close-by Chicago police surveillance digital camera recorded the complete hijacking, which Boliker known as a “brazen violent act.”
Cops arrested Rios this week when he appeared in courtroom on an unrelated case wherein he’s accused of being one of many occupants of a automobile the place an Illinois State Police trooper allegedly discovered cocaine, pot, and a considerable amount of money earlier this month.
