3 Accused Of Stealing Items From Naperville, Nearby Ulta Stores

NAPERVILLE, IL — Three Chicago women face felony charges after police say they stole items from Ulta stores in and around Naperville.

Darielle L. Wrice, 19, Jayla M. Alston, 20, and Skylar L. Escoe, 19, were charged one count of felony burglary and two counts of felony retail theft in connection with the incidents.

Around 2 p.m. Wednesday, Naperville police were notified that a black Mercedes had been involved in retail thefts at two Ulta stores in the area. Police say they found the car at the Ulta location in the 2700 block of Aurora Avenue.

Officers say they saw Wrice, Alston and Escoe go into and then leave the Aurora Avenue Ulta with baskets full of unpaid items and that the trio had been the same suspects from the earlier retail thefts.

Wrice is accused of attempting to flee in the Mercedes and hitting a Naperville Police Department squad car, leading to charges of driving without a valid license and criminal damage to government property.

Wrice, Alston and Esco were released and police say they are investigating whether the trio have been linked to other retail thefts.
