Illegal aliens charged in series of robberies

A parolee and a female companion are accused of committing four robberies and could be connected to several others across the city.
Isidro Torres, 34, of the 2700 block of West Harrison Street, and Yuliana Trigueros, 21, of the 4400 block of West 77th Place, were charged today with four counts of robbery, all of which happened within the past week.
Torres is currently on parole for armed robbery and robbery convictions, according to court records. The two would prey on female victims, approaching them and snatching necklaces off their necks. Typically, Trigueros would drive the getaway car while Torres would jump out, steal the jewelry and hop back in the car.
The necklaces would be sold at pawn shops for about $100 a piece, but some of them have since been recovered by police.

On Monday, police saw a vehicle that had been identified as having been used in a robbery that happened earlier that day in the 2800 block of South Avers Avenue. Police said they stopped the gold Nissan Maxima while Trigueros was parking it near her home. Harrison Area detectives and officers from the Ogden and Monroe Districts arrested Trigueros at her home about 12:30 p.m. Monday, and Torres was apprehended about six hours later on the West Side.
