Policing authorities speak frequently of the importance of day-to-day, routine policing, noting that most suspects are identified and captured through such seemingly mundane activities.
On Monday evening in Naperville, that principle was confirmed by results.
A proactive traffic stop by Naperville patrol officers late Monday night resulted in the arrest of a 19-year-old man on numerous felony charges and the recovery of two illegal firearms – one having an extended magazine and no serial number, the other having been modified to be able to fire as a fully automatic weapon, both felony offenses.
The driver was charged with three counts of felony weapons offenses, illegal transportation of cannabis, illegal transportation of open alcohol and window tint violations.
