The preliminary investigation indicates that one subject, identified as Elija I. Castillo, 20, of the 600 block of Cass Street in Joliet, allegedly threw a rock through the window and entered the business. It is alleged that as he was leaving the business, he dropped some items allegedly taken from the shop, which were picked up by the second subject, identified as Jason P. Crumpacker, 20, of the 100 block of Testa Drive in Naperville, before both ran from the area.
