A Waukegan man has been charged with entering the home of a disabled man Thursday, injuring him and taking his property, police said.
The incident was one of two robberies the Waukegan Police Department say Timothy J. Brown, 48, of the 600 block of Lenox Avenue, committed, according to a news release.
Police say Brown used physical force to rob a woman over the age of 60 while she was outside in the 900 block of Washington Park Wednesday.
The home invasion happened the following day in the 1300 block of North Avenue, according to the release.
Cmdr. Joe Florip said as far as he was aware, neither victim was hospitalized.
Brown was arrested by the North Chicago Police Department Friday and turned over to the Waukegan Police Department, according to the release. He has been charged in both instances and has a bond hearing scheduled for Saturday.
