Security cameras installed at FoxRiverGrove motel that has been site of 'dozens' of overdoses
Officials hope additional security cameras covering more areas of a Fox River Grove motel will reduce the number of overdose deaths reported there, McHenry County State's Attorney Patrick Kenneally said. Although the owners of the motel at 1000 Route 14 added security cameras in 2022 at his office's request, another overdose death occurred there early this year, he added.
If a judge were to agree with prosecutors and declare the site a nuisance, it could be closed until the nuisance is abated, Kenneally said.by signing up you agree to our terms of service Overdose deaths were not the only calls for service to the motel, Fox River Grove Police Chief Eric Waitrovich wrote in an email.
In addition to video surveillance, Fox River Grove police officers also have increased patrols in the area. Officers now have more time to check for cars coming in and out of the motel parking lot, how people got to the site, and who they were talking to, he said.
