Glendale Heights man charged in burglary

A 31-year-old Glendale Heights man has been charged with two counts of burglary and one count of possession of a controlled substance, police said Wednesday.

Police said they responded at 12:38 a.m. Nov. 16 to a report of a suspicious man looking into vehicles on the 100 block of Stonefield Drive. When they arrived, they found Jonathan Pfeifer inside a parked vehicle, police said.

Pfeifer fled on foot and was apprehended after a brief chase, police said.

According to court records, Pfeifer was arrested Nov. 23 after a $250,000 warrant was issued. The possession charge relates to 27 pills of the sedative narcotic alprazolam, sometimes sold commercially as Xanax, he is accused of possessing.

Pfeifer also has an outstanding battery charge, stemming from an Oct. 14 incident in which he is accused of striking a woman in the face with a "fiberglass fire hydrant marker."

Pfeifer is still being held in the DuPage County jail on $250,000 bail. He's next due in court on Monday.
