Chicago Men Charged with Bolingbrook Home Invasion, Armed Robbery

Two Chicago men face multiple charges after a home invasion and armed robbery in the 400 block of Sioux Drive on Saturday, police said.

Lt. Mike Rompa said officers responded quickly to a report of subjects inside a home, threatening residents with a gun. Police said there were two adults and two children in the home at the time of the incident.

While police arrived, the offenders were still inside the home. One suspect jumped out of a second-floor window, with several officers in pursuit, Rompa said. After a lengthy foot chase, Rompa said the suspect "actively fought his arrest" and caused minor injuries to two officers.

The other offender was apprehended inside the home, according to police. Both men have lengthy criminal histories, Rompa said.

Jerry Griffin, 32, and Keauncie Lee, 26, of Chicago, were both arrested and take the the Will County jail on charges of home invasion, armed robbery, resisting arrest, aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, possession of a firearm by a felon, four counts of aggravated battery, no FOID card, unlawful possession of a firearm and ammunition and aggravated unlawful restraint, police said.

Rompa said the gun, a loaded Glock, was found next to the window where one offender had jumped. Cash that had been stolen from one of the victims was recovered, police said.
