A Chicago man was charged Wednesday in connection with the armed robbery of an Elk Grove Village gas station last week.
Ricky A. Kelly, 62, is charged with a felony count of armed robbery and is being held on $100,000 bail, of which he needs to post 10% to be released.
Elk Grove Village police said they arrested Kelly at his residence in Chicago on Tuesday and brought him to the police station for questioning.
