Maine Township resident charged in neighbors' homes burglaries

Cook County Sheriff's Police have arrested a 22-year-old man and charged him with burglary in connection with break-ins at three of his neighbors' homes in Maine Township, officials said Tuesday.

Sheriff's detectives responded around 5:45 p.m. Thursday to a burglary on the 10000 block of Linda Lane. Someone forced open the door of the apartment when no one was home and took several items. During a canvass of the neighborhood, officers found a resident who told detectives a man named “Renzo” was in the area around the time of the burglary, sheriff's police said. Detectives learned that “Renzo” was Davon Miller, who is also known as Lorenzo Miller and lives on the 9900 block of Linda Lane.

During questioning, Miller admitted his involvement in the Thursday burglary and two others that had occurred earlier on nearby Holly Lane, sheriff's police said.

Miller was being held Tuesday in Cook County Jail in lieu of the $80,000 bond set at a court hearing on Saturday.
