U.S. Marshals and officials with Cook County Sheriff’s Fugitive Apprehension Unit said 26-year-old Bradley Pitts was taken into custody Wednesday in the Chicago suburb of Maywood. He is being held on suspicion of three counts of battery with use of a deadly weapon causing substantial bodily harm. Pitts remains jailed on a $25,000 bond. Illinois authorities say extradition proceedings are pending.
