Multiple federal agencies are assisting local law enforcement with investigating a home invasion in north suburban Northbrook, authorities said.
Northbrook police said at around 2 p.m. on Friday, officers responded to a 911 call reporting a home invasion in the 1900 block of Butternut Lane. The suspects fled the area before officers arrived.
Illinois State Police said troopers located the suspects’ vehicle along Interstate 94 southbound near 75th Street in Chicago on Friday afternoon – but the driver refused to pull over and led them on a chase. The vehicle eventually came to a stop along South Wallace Avenue near West 63rd Street in Englewood, where the occupants fled into a home.
NBC Chicago’s Sky 5 helicopter captured aerial footage showing a large police presence at the scene.
Northbrook police said multiple persons of interest were taken into custody, but it’s unclear how many people had been apprehended. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the FBI, as well as the Chicago, Glencoe and Winnetka police departments were assisting with the investigation.
Police said there was no immediate threat to public safety, but officers were increasing patrols in neighborhoods as a precaution.
Anyone who witnessed suspicious activity in the area or who has surveillance video was asked to call Northbrook police at 847-564-2060.
The incident comes a few weeks after a home invasion in Winnetka in which a suspect posed as a delivery driver and others with masks forcefully entered home and then held someone inside at gunpoint. It remains unclear if the two incidents are connected.
