Naperville police arrest three men in connection with June 18 armed robbery

Naperville Police arrested three men on June 18 following an investigation into an armed robbery that occurred earlier that morning on the 1700 block of West Ogden Avenue, the department announced June 23.

According to the City of Naperville, officers responded just after 4 a.m. to a report of an armed robbery. Police said two female victims had arrived at the location so one of them could fight Tyrell Mays, 19, who was known to the women. During the altercation between Mays and one of the women, two other suspects—identified as Davyon Toney, 19, and Jalen Green, 19—allegedly displayed a handgun, battered the second victim, and took the victims’ belongings, including a backpack containing a firearm. The three men fled the scene on foot before police arrived.

Mays was located by police a short time later attempting to leave the area in a ride-share and was allegedly in possession of the stolen firearm. Further investigation led to the identification of Green as a second suspect. A search warrant was executed at Green’s residence on the 700 block of Violet Circle in Naperville early that afternoon, resulting in the arrest of the remaining two suspects and the recovery of the handgun allegedly used during the incident, as well as additional items allegedly stolen during the earlier encounter.

Toney, of the 500 block of Northgate Circle in Oswego; Green, of the 700 block of Violet Circle in Naperville; and Mays, of the 2800 block of Troon Drive in Montgomery, are each charged with two counts of Armed Robbery with a Firearm (Class X felony) and one count of Mob Action (Class 4 felony). Toney and Green are also charged with two counts of Aggravated Battery (Class 3 felony).

“Violent crimes such as armed robbery have no place in our community. These charges reflect the seriousness of the allegations and the commitment of the Naperville Police Department to aggressively investigate violent crimes, seek justice for victims, and hold those responsible accountable. I want to commend the outstanding work of our patrol officers, Special Response Team members, and detectives whose professionalism, persistence, and coordination were instrumental in bringing this investigation to a successful conclusion. Their efforts demonstrate the strength of a department-wide approach to public safety and our unwavering commitment to protecting our community,” said Police Chief Jason Arres, according to the City of Naperville.

The Naperville Police remind the public that a charge is merely an accusation, and a defendant is presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
