Peru police are looking for a woman who allegedly tried to cash stolen checks with a stolen ID. Deputy Police Chief Sarah Raymond says police were called to the First State Bank around noon Tuesday.
Once they arrived, the woman apparently sped away from the drive-up lane and tried to flee from police. After a pursuit that started on Venture Drive, which then went to IL 251 and then went to Interstate 80, police decided to end it. The license plate on the suspects vehicle was also found to have been stolen.
The suspect is a blond female between thirty and forty years old. She is also wanted for questioning at three other suburban police departments regarding the same type of incident. Anyone with information can call the Peru Police Department at 815-223-2151.
