Lisle Junior High worker charged with stealing student meds from nurse's office

A maintenance worker at Lisle Junior High School has been charged with stealing students' medicine.

Bail was set at $75,000 Thursday for 26-year-old Daniel Westerhoff, of the 5300 block of Westview Lane, Lisle.

He is charged with felony burglary from a school.

Authorities say that around 4:45 p.m. Sunday, Westerhoff went into the school nurse's office, unlocked a medications cabinet and took 10 to 12 Adderall pills.

School officials learned the pills were missing and alerted a police officer stationed at the school.

Westerhoff was arrested Wednesday at the school.

Adderall is an amphetamine prescribed to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
