By Beacon-News staff
Four teens have been charged with attempted residential burglary in connection with an incident Tuesday in Oswego.
Kendall R. Parker, 18, Plainfield; Christian A. Echols, 18, Plainfield; Grantham J. Williams, 19, Plainfield; and Robert C. Pannell, 18, Chicago, were charged with attempted residential burglary, which is a class 2 felony.
On Tuesday, Oswego police were called at approximately 12:10 p.m. to a home on Chapin Way in the Prescott Mill subdivision for an attempted forced entry into a residence. Police were told there were four teens traveling in a dark-colored vehicle that may have been involved in the incident. Police received another call at approximately 12:20 p.m. from a resident on Charismatic Drive in the Churchill Club subdivision that someone had rang the doorbell asking about an address that was not near the home. The resident described a similar vehicle as in the previous call.
Police officers located a vehicle matching the description, stopped it and made contact with four teens. It was determined that Parker had an active warrant out of Will County and was taken into custody. All four teens were brought to the police department and interviewed. Through the investigation, it was determined that similar incidents have occurred in surrounding areas, and Oswego police are working with other area agencies on those cases.
The Kendall County State's Attorney's Office approved charges on all four men for attempted residential burglary. The men were taken to Kendall County Jail. Additional charges may be forthcoming, police said.
