Two Charged with Breaking Into Bolingbrook Nail Salon: Police

Two people were arrested early Friday after allegedly breaking into a Bolingbrook nail salon, police said.

Huy Van Nguyen, 22, and Jessica Tait, 27, are both charged with burglary following an incident at Pro Nails 1, 291 S. Bolingbrook Drive.

Police responded to the nail salon at around 5:54 a.m. after a male subject was reportedly seen striking the front door to the business with an unknown object, according to Bolingbrook Lt. Mike Rompa. The suspect was able to break the glass door and push it in to enter the business before going through the counter drawers, police said. He then exited and ran to a waiting vehicle in the parking lot of a nearby church, according to police.

Bolingbrook officers conducted a traffic stop on the vehicle as it attempted to flee the area. Nguyen and Tait were identified, interviewed and taken into custody, police said. Both were transported to the Will County jail.

In addition to burglary, Nguyen was charged with possession of a controlled substance, according to jail records.

Both of the accused burglars are currently homeless, police said, but Nguyen’s last known address was in the 1000 block of Bayhill in Shorewood, while Tait’s was in the 900 block of Robinhill, Shorewood.
