Jose Gutierrez

A 31-year-old Cicero man was denied pretrial release Saturday in connection with a road rage incident and police chase throughout DuPage County Friday night.

Jose Gutierrez appeared in court Saturday morning after being charged with two counts of aggravated fleeing and eluding a police officer, one count of aggravated unlawful possession of a weapon, and multiple misdemeanor offenses.

Naperville police responded to the road rage incident near Naper Boulevard and Plank Road, where they say Gutierrez pointed a handgun at another driver.

An officer pulled Gutierrez over at 8:49 p.m. Friday, and while he initially came to a stop and placed his hands outside the driver’s side window as ordered by police, he then fled, according to the DuPage County state’s attorney’s office.
