The men confronted the residents inside as they were playing video games and demanded their money and valuables, police said. Larios and his friends, Juan and Jesus Delgados, allegedly pistol whipped the residents with a handgun and shotgun before fleeing the house. A female accomplice, Jasmine Pico, 29, was waiting outside in the car, police said.

One of the victims followed the crew’s vehicle, when police said Juan Delgado fired a shot in the chase car’s direction. The crew didn’t get far and were pulled over by neighboring Burbank police. While attempting to stop the car, the four fled on foot police said.

The Delgados and Pico were apprehended near the the traffic stop, but police said that Larios managed to elude the law since Aug. 20.

Oak Lawn police detectives developed information on Larios, who was identified by witnesses, police said in a news release. A warrant for his arrest was issued by the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office.

Larios appeared in Bridgeview on Friday where bail was set at $500,000.
