COOK COUNTY, Ill. - A northwest suburban pair is facing misdemeanor charges nearly two months after allegedly vandalizing a local political office.
Police said 72-year-old Brock McNerney and 69-year-old Moisette McNerney, both of Arlington Heights, were identified as the people responsible for damaging the Republicans of Wheeling Township building at 909 E. Rand Road.

The backstory:
The incident happened around 11 p.m. on Jan. 25, when the front windows of the building were marked with a permanent marker. Police said the markings included profanity and Nazi symbols.
Officers also reported finding what appeared to be feces and an unknown liquid on the walkway leading to the office entrance.
After an investigation, the duo was taken into custody on Monday without incident. They were each charged with criminal damage to property and criminal defacement of property, both misdemeanors.
What's next:
Police said the pair were released and are expected to appear in court at a later date.
