UPDATE: One Arrested in Plainfield Home Invasion, Shooting

Updated 11:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 21:

One of two men wanted in connection with an Aug. 14 home invasion in Plainfield has been apprehended.

Anthony W. Wilkinson, 18, of the 400 block of Linden in Joliet, was arrested Sunday by Joliet police and booked into the Will County jail, according to jail records.

Wilkinson is charged with residential burglary, a felony. Bond was set at $250,000, meaning Wilkinson would have to post $25,000 to be released.

A second Joliet man, 20-year-old Ryan Beattie, is wanted on warrants for aggravated battery with a firearm, aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, residential burglary and four counts of home invasion.

Plainfield police on Friday said they are working to determine the identity of a third man involved in the incident. According to police, the three suspects — two of whom were wearing masks and wielding guns — entered an apartment in the 24000 block of Main Street around 1 a.m. Aug. 14 and demanded drugs and money.

A 19-year-old man was shot in the upper chest area after pursuing the three suspects from the apartment, while a second man was punched in the face several times after struggling with the assailants, police said.

Police believe Beattie shot a 19-year-old resident in the upper chest during a scuffle in the vestibule of the apartment building after the teen pursued the three suspects. The victim also suffered an injury to his arm, and was treated and released from an area hospital following the shooting.

According to police, six people ranging in age from their late teens to their early 20s were in the apartment when the suspects entered, demanding drugs and money, shortly after 1 a.m. Aug. 14. Two of the home invaders were wearing masks over their faces and brandishing firearms, police said.

Another resident was also injured during a struggle inside the apartment after being punched in the face several times by one of the suspects, according to police. He was treated by paramedics at the scene.

This summer, police said the assailants specifically targeted the Main Street apartment.
