Man indicted in Barrington Hills home robbery
A Cook County grand jury has indicted a Wilmette man on 22 counts of various felony charges related to a Barrington Hills home invasion where a 60-year-old female was struck with a handgun.
Kuhn Kim, 24, was charged with home invasion, armed robbery, kidnapping, aggravated kidnapping, possession of a stolen vehicle, battery, burglary and other charges Thursday.
On Dec. 8, Kim posted a $100,000 cash bond to get out of jail and is to return to court on Jan. 29.
Authorities say Kim took various items during a Dec. 5 robbery, then stole a Jaguar from the residence and ditched it in the parking lot of a nearby Presbyterian church where he'd previously left his own car. The victim who was struck during the robbery was later treated at a hospital and released, authorities said.
Barrington Hills police apprehended Kim about 90 minutes after the incident, said Sgt. Ron Riedel.
At the bond hearing, Kim's defense attorney indicated that his client "has some psychiatric issues."
Judge Joseph Urso also imposed special bond conditions on Kim, who lives on the 1600 block of Sheridan Road. The conditions include a curfew and a no-contact order.
