A 42-year-old Lake in the Hills man has been charged with multiple felony DUI charges after his vehicle allegedly collided with a minivan on South Randall Road early Sunday morning, resulting in significant injuries to 6 passengers in the minivan.
Today, Kane County State’s Attorney Jamie Mosser and Algonquin Chief of Police Dennis Walker announced that the defendant has been charged with Aggravated DUI – 6th or Subsequent Violation, a Class X felony; Aggravated DUI – Crash/Great Bodily Harm, a Class 4 felony: and Aggravated DUI – License Revoked, a Class 4 felony.
Prosecutors allege that early Sunday morning the defendant was operating a 2016 BMW sedan while under the influence of alcohol and while his driver’s license was revoked. The defendant was driving northbound in the southbound lane on South Randall Road in Algonquin and collided head-on with a minivan. The minivan contained six passengers who were transported to different area hospitals, some with great bodily harm. Prosecutors also allege that officers observed the defendant to have slurred speech, red glassy eyes, and the odor of alcohol on his breath.
The defendant has seven prior DUI-related convictions.
On Monday, the defendant was brought to court for a pretrial detention hearing. The State successfully argued for his detention, and the court ordered the defendant detained in the Kane County jail while his case is pending.
The defendant’s next court date is set for June 10, 2026, at 9am in Courtroom 305 of the Kane County Judicial Center.
