Lake County carjacking suspect captured in Detroit
A Lake County man wanted in connection with an armed robbery and carjacking in Waukegan was captured last week in Detroit, Lake County Sheriff's police said Tuesday.
Timothy R. Adams, 34, of the 2200 block of Kristan Avenue, North Chicago, was taken into custody Friday by the U.S. Marshals Service-Detroit Fugitive Task Force, which had been tipped off to his presence by the Lake County Sheriff's Warrants Team, authorities said.
Adams had an active $500,000 Lake County warrant for armed robbery and vehicular hijacking out of Waukegan and a $200,000 warrant for unlawful possession of a controlled substance, officials said.
He remained in custody Tuesday at the Wayne County, Michigan Jail pending an extradition hearing.
