            37-year-old Anthony Deray Dunn, the same man who was pepper sprayed by a bank security guard in downtown Joliet, was arrested three more times over the first full weekend of November. All of Dunn’s arrests that weekend took place from the same area of Joliet, the 300 block of North Ottawa street, according to the police records. 

            Dunn was previously arrested on Monday November 2, 2020 at a BMO Harris in Joliet after he allegedly kept touching a woman working at the bank and refused to stop, which eventually led to security guard stepping in. Once the security guard stepped in, Dunn ran to a stairwell behind the Rialto Square Theatre where the Joliet Police eventually arrested him.

            Around 2:10 on the Saturday of Dunn’s eventful weekend, officers reported learning that Dunn had hit a resident in the face at the Joliet Housing Authority high-rise on North Ottawa Street. Dunn’s victim was taken to the hospital, but there were no life-threatening injuries, and he was arrested on charges of battery. Dunn was later released on an I-bond, according to police reports. 

            Around 7 a.m. on the Sunday of Dunn’s eventful weekend, officers arrested him for the second time due to an incident that again happened in the 300 block of North Ottawa Street. This time, Dunn was arrested for disorderly conduct and criminal trespass to property. According to the police report, “officers determined that Dunn was asked to leave the residence by the victim and refused. Dunn left the premises after being advised by officers to leave and not return. A short time later, Dunn returned to the same residence and began arguing with the victim. Officers placed Dunn into custody without incident.” The police reported also noted that Dunn was again released on an I-bond

            Again, on the Sunday of Dunn’s eventful weekend, around 9:15 a.m. he was arrested again. Dunn faces charges of criminal trespass to property and a violation of bail bond after again returning to the 300 block of North Ottawa Street. According to the police report, “officers arrived and observed Dunn on the property. Dun had been arrested at the same address earlier in the morning for criminal trespass to property and advised not to return.”

            Finally, after Joliet police realized that Dunn’s third arrest violated the terms of his bond, he was taken into a longer-term detention. Dunn was taken to Will County Jail.
