Police charged two Barrington men after the individuals were allegedly spotted stealing traffic cones early Thursday morning, June 30.

Police received a call from someone who said they spotted individuals in a pickup truck taking traffic cones from a construction site on Waseca Avenue at about 1 a.m.

Police tracked down the vehicle, which was driven by Barrington resident Nicholas Raymond, 20. An officer said there was an odor of alcohol coming from Mr. Raymond; beers and a bottle of vodka were also allegedly found inside the truck.

Police later charged Mr. Raymond with driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol-first offense, refusing to take a chemical test, larceny under $1,500, possession of false identification, and possession of alcoholic beverage by underage person.

Police also charged his passenger, Barrington resident Matthew Barry, 20, with larceny under $1,500, possession of false identification, possession of alcoholic beverage by underage person.
