RawNews1st – Prosecutors in DuPage County say five out-of-state women face theft charges after breaking into a Kohl’s in the Woodridge area on Thursday.
Officers from the Woodridge Police Department responded to Kohl’s in the 1000 block of 75th St. around 3:50 p.m. due to reports of a theft in progress.

Bond was set at $40,000 plus 10% for Brashear, Brown, and Allen, and $60,000 plus 10% for Gunby and Jones-Spencer.
All defendants are scheduled to appear in court on December 2.
