A Milwaukee woman is in jail after she allegedly stole a piggy bank and an iPad from a teenager she met online.
According to a report from our sister station WITI, Dareka Brooks is charged with armed robbery and is being held on $10,000 bond.
The Chicago 14-year-old told police he was home alone on Thursday (May 2) and attempting to pick up a prostitute online when Brooks accepted his invitation.
According to the report, Brooks pepper-sprayed the teen while he was in his bedroom, then took his piggy bank and iPad.
Prospect Heights police officers tracked Brooks to a motel in Elk Grove Village after she turned on the stolen iPad.
