Two men face armed robbery charges for allegedly breaking into a hotel room in Morton Grove over the weekend.
27-year-old Manuel Antonio Pimentel-Rodriguez, of Chicago, and 30-year-old Jorvin Gil Duran, of Evanston, are also charged with home invasion at the Red Roof Inn on Waukegan Road.
Morton Grove police say at about 10:18 p.m. Saturday, they forced their way into a room and demanded money from the guests.
During the robbery someone fired a shot but no one was hit and the men took off, police say.
Working with Illinois State Police, the Chicago Police Department and the Cook County Sheriff’s Office, the men were caught in Hyde Park.
Automated License Plate Readers and a police helicopter helped police track down the men and find a loaded handgun in their car.
Pimentel-Rodriguez also faces attempted murder and aggravated criminal sexual assault charges.
