'Felony Lane Gang' Suspect Caught And Charged: Sheriff

NAPERVILLE, IL — Police said a member of the infamous Felony Lane Gang was taken into custody Thursday night. Jerome Glinton, 26, of Round Lake, is behind held at the Will County jail on a $750,000 bond, according to the sheriff's department.

Glinton faces 12 counts of aggravated identity theft, conspiracy to commit identity theft, and identity theft, according to the Naperville Sun.
