25th gun-related arrest at the Naperville Topgolf parking lot

A man from Gary, Indiana, was arrested last weekend at the Naperville Topgolf for allegedly having a firearm in his car. 

Police told the Naperville Sun that an officer was on foot patrol in the lot on Sunday night, Oct. 27, when they observed a handgun with an extended magazine in plain view inside a parked vehicle. A group of four later returned to the car and were detained while police investigated.

Authorities noted to the Naperville Sun that this was the 25th gun-related arrest at the Naperville Topgolf since Aug. 2023.
