Bourbonnais, IL – In a brief but intense episode, a 19-year-old man from Bourbonnais led police on a chase before surrendering at a residence Tuesday afternoon.
According to reports the incident, which unfolded around 2:30 PM, began when police attempted a traffic stop at Main Street and Route 102.
