Jeremy Hylka faces five criminal charges in connection with his April 27 visit to a Joliet-area McDonald’s to allegedly meet and solicit someone whom he believed to be an underage boy he met through the internet, according to court documents.

The turnaround model involved taking over low-performing public schools, firing and rehiring staff.

Finally on Friday, from 6 to 9 p.m., fellow house music lovers can come to 610 W. Root St. to sign the official proclamation. But even if you don’t know Williams, you might know this city’s famed dance club the Warehouse.
