Man Sentenced to 17 Years in Prison for Armed Robbery at Naperville Credit Union

Warren B. Hill has already served prison time for at least two other bank robberies.

An ex-convict accused of donning a grotesque white mask, pointing a gun at a teller's head and robbing a Naperville credit union at gunpoint in 2011 was sentenced Monday to 17 years in prison and ordered to pay $134,300 in restitution, according to CBS Chicago. 

Warren B. Hill was found guilty by a U.S. District Court jury in July for five counts of bank robbery, possession of stolen money and money laundering after authorities said he stole $135,000 from the Illiana Financial Credit Union, 1163 E. Ogden Ave. in Naperville on Nov. 19, 2011, according to CBS Chicago. 

Hill, 47, who has a last known address in Waukegan, was arrested a week later at an Indiana casino after an Indiana Gaming Commission enforcement agent saw him inserting  “red dye-stained” money into one of the casino's machines, according to the Naperville Sun. 

Hill has served time in prison for at least two bank robberies in the Chicago's north and northwest suburbs and in 2004 was a suspect in a string of burglaries to hotels in the west suburbs, including two in Naperville, according to the article.
