Hanover Park robbery suspect expected in court

Hanover Park police arrested a suspect in a robbery that happened last week at a local convenience store.

Travis D. White, 19, of 5432 Sinatra Lane in Hanover Park, was later charged with one count of burglary. He appeared in DuPage County bond court Sunday morning, where his bond was set at $30,000. White remained in DuPage County Jail Sunday afternoon.

Hanover Park police arrested White Friday night in the 5500 block of County Farm Road after a witness reported White riding his bicycle in the area. Police tracked down White and found he matched the description of the suspect.

The robbery took place just after 11:30 p.m. Tuesday at Al's Pantry, 5561 County Farm Road. The clerk told police that an unknown man entered the store and, leading the clerk to believe he was carrying a weapon, took two packages of cigarettes before fleeing.

A description of the suspect and the bicycle he used to flee the area was obtained from witnesses, police said.
