Pair from Chicago Busted During Joy Ride: Blotter

Two Chicago men on a joy ride were stopped by Evergreen Police last month.

Jorian M. Rey, 41, of the 8600 block of South Loomis Boulevard, Chicago, was charged with felony obstructing identification, misdemeanor criminal trespass to a vehicle and driving without insurance, according to a report.

Rey is accused of giving police a fake name while driving a stolen car on June 25, police said.

Evergreen Park police said Rey drove a 2004 Taurus that belonged to someone else and was stopped at about 6:12 p.m. near the intersection of 87th Street and Kedzie Avenue. Officers were able to figure out Rey's real identity and arrest him.
A passenger in the car also was arrested.

Philip C. Ghent, 41, of 6200 block of South Artesian Avenue, Chicago, was charged with criminal trespass to a stolen vehicle.
