to a house in the 2600 block of Cherie Ln. and advised the female was last seen
entering the attached garage. Officers responded to the house and quickly

(Class 1 Felony) and Violation of Conditions of Pretrial Release (Class A
Misdemeanor). Torres-Magana was taken to the LaSalle County Jail to await a
