The second suspect, identified as 28-year-old Deevven Q. Harris, managed to escape in a black Nissan sedan without turning on the lights. This led the officers on a chase, with Harris driving eastbound on Interstate 290 and subsequently exiting west onto St. Charles Road in Elmhurst.

During the pursuit, Elmhurst officers strategically deployed tire deflation devices on St. Charles Road, which successfully disabled the driver’s side tires of the Nissan. Shortly after, the car came to a stop and Harris fled on foot. However, a state trooper and a Bensenville officer managed to apprehend him near the Interstate 290 ramp on York Street.

The Nissan used by the suspects was a rental car, with the rear license plate removed and the front plate bent upwards, according to the police. Smith has been charged with attempted burglary and resisting or obstructing an officer, while Harris faces charges of attempted burglary, aggravated fleeing and eluding, speeding, driving without registration, disobeying a traffic signal, improper lighting, and disobeying a stop sign.
