Man charged with Barrington auto theft faces new charges in thefts from Roselle auto dealership.
Tavarius Jackson, 27, is charged with burglary and possession of a stolen motor vehicle. Prosecutors say he and several others took six luxury vehicles -- among them an Audi, Mercedes and a Maserati -- from the Roselle dealership during the early morning hours of Jan. 9. Jackson, who already was in custody at the Cook County jail on $100,000 cash bail, was ordered held on an additional $75,000 cash bail.
Jackson took the keys to an Audi, which video surveillance from a nearby gas station showed later driving onto Roselle Road, according to prosecutors. The vehicle later was recovered with a front tire missing. According to police, Jackson used a stolen vehicle to ram a Barrington police vehicle that was blocking his escape from the lot. Prosecutors say he then drove off in the police car, reaching 126 mph before crashing and being captured.
