McHenry Sheriffs Office and Local Police Roundup 39 Wanted on Warrants

Cary residents were among 39 individuals arrested on outstanding warrants on March 3, in a one-day roundup led by the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office Apprehension Unit.

“This is probably the most successful roundup we’ve had to date,” said Sgt. Anthony Penna, of the Apprehension Unit.

Penna said the unit organizes roundups about three or four times per year in an attempt to address the large number of outstanding warrants in McHenry County.  He said the success of this particular roundup is due to preliminary investigations into the alleged offenders addresses.

He said people wanted on warrants often try to hide their addresses.

“Our job is to find them,” Penna said. Officers were successful in finding and arresting 39 of 65 subjects they went after. 

The roundup started in the early morning hours Mar. 3 and ended about noon. Sheriff’s deputies coordinated efforts with the Illinois State Police, Lake County Sheriff’s Office, McHenry Police Department, Crystal Lake Police Department, Algonquin Police Department and deputies from the United Marshals Fugitive Task Force.

According to the press release from McHenry County Sheriff Keith Nygren, many of the arrests were served upon repeat offenders who had multiple warrants for their arrests.

While most of those wanted surrendered peacefully, a Cary resident resisted arrest, which resulted in additional charges of three counts of aggravated battery and resisting arrest.
