A similar incident to the home invasion that occurred in Homer Glen during which a senior was tied up and held at gunpoint after an otherwise normal visit to the grocery store also occurred in another suburb of Chicago, the mayor said Thursday.

Homer Glen Mayor Neitzke-Troike posted on social media Thursday stating that she spoke with the Mayor of Lemont and was informed that a similar incident to the home invasion that occurred on the 16800 block of South Deer Path Wednesday afternoon also occurred in Lemont.

"After speaking with the Mayor of Lemont, a similar situation (details to come, as I do not have them), just took place in Lemont today. Please be aware of your surroundings," she said.

No additional details about the incident that occurred in Lemont were immediately available.
