On Tuesday, August 1st, the Mount Prospect Police Department executed a search warrant on Weissert’s residence, locating items connecting him to the July 23rd burglary. Weissert was taken into custody just outside of his residence, located just north-northwest of Rand Road and Camp McDonald Road near the Brandberry Park Condominiums in Arlington Heights. Weissert was subsequently charged with one count of residential burglary.
