Elgin

• An Elgin man who went to the police station after his brother's arrest on a warrant found himself in plenty of trouble on Thanksgiving Day. James M. Luecke, 44, of the 1000 block of Lakewood, Elgin, who initially didn't face any charges, hurled racial epithets at black and Latino inmates, threatened to beat them up and also insulted various police officers, threatening assault them up as well, reports state. When five officers tried to carry Luecke to a padded cell, he kicked and punched the window of the cell he was already in, forcing police to deploy several rounds of pepper spray, according to reports. Police also used a shield to pin Luecke to the ground before carrying him to the padded cell. Luecke was charged with aggravated assault and resisting a police officer. He could not be processed due to his unruly behavior and was awaiting the next bond call.
