DeKalb Man Charged With Attempted Murder After Arlington Heights Stabbing

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS – A 25-year-old DeKalb man faces attempted first degree murder and aggravated battery charges after allegedly stabbing someone and trying to hit the person with his car in Arlington Heights. Police responded Saturday to the 300 block of North Salem Avenue, where they found a victim with multiple wounds to the chest and hand. The victim was taken to a Park Ridge hospital and was listed in stable condition with injuries considered non-life threatening. Investigators say Kendall Chesley also allegedly tried to strike the victim with a passenger vehicle before crashing into a nearby building and fleeing on foot. Police used multiple units, including K9s and drones, to search for Chesley, who was later found near Rand and Hintz roads. Chesley appeared for a detention hearing Sunday at the Cook County Courthouse.
