A seventh defendant, Tyrese Fenton-Watson, 23, has been charged in a violent home invasion that terrorized a Winnetka family. On March 8, 2026, Fenton-Watson and six co-conspirators, including Dashun Brown, posed as a food delivery driver to gain entry to the home.
Armed with loaded firearms, the group forcibly entered the residence, keeping a family member captive for over an hour. The perpetrators physically restrained the victim and a child who arrived home during the invasion, demanding access to a safe and online accounts containing cryptocurrency.
The group fled after about an hour, meeting up with co-conspirators waiting nearby. Seven defendants have now been charged in connection with the home invasion, with six previously arrested and charged with robbery and kidnapping offenses.
Fenton-Watson was arrested on April 28, 2026, and is being held in federal custody without bond. The U.S. Attorney’s Office has appealed for the detention of one of the co-conspirators, with a U.S. District judge ordering the defendant to remain detained without bond.
