ELGIN, Ill. (STMW) - A 24-year-old Pingree Grove man was arrested early Saturday morning after he allegedly knifed several people outside the Tilted Kilt pub in northwest suburban Elgin.
Daniel D. Sanchez, of the 1100 block of Port Royal Road, was charged with two counts of attempted murder, two counts of aggravated battery for causing great bodily hard and two counts of aggravated battery for using a deadly weapon, according to a release from the Elgin Police Dept.
