DeKalb County Sheriff's Police arrested an Aurora teen along with a 16-year old boy yesterday afternoon following an altercation with a deputy at Kishwaukee Community College in Malta.
The confrontation began when the deputy, who was working at the college, received word of a cell phone that was stolen. When the deputy found the 16-year old boy walking in the parking lot who he saw on video, he gave back the phone to the victim.
