FAYETTE COUNTY — Judge Allan Lolie ordered a 36-year-old Brownstown man to remain in the Fayette County Jail pending trial on charges accusing him of home invasion to a retired school teacher’s residence over the weekend, along with a subsequent fire set at her home and the theft of her vehicle.

Tyler Roe was formally charged Tuesday with Class X felonies for home invasion resulting in great bodily harm, aggravated arson resulting in bodily harm, Class 1 felony residential burglary, and Class 3 felony theft.

Roe is next scheduled to appear in court on January 23 for a first appearance and preliminary hearing on the charges. He was already scheduled to appear that day for a pretrial hearing in a case accusing him of burglary to the Cabin liquor store and gaming parlor in Brownstown on July 31, 2022.

According to Illinois State Police, officers were dispatched around 7 p.m. Saturday to a home in the 1600 block of North 1550th Street in Brownstown for a call of a burglary in progress with shots fired.

Tyler J. Roe, of Brownstown was reportedly fleeing the burglary in a truck he’d stolen from the victim’s home after setting the home on fire.

Fayette County Sheriff’s deputies reportedly located the vehicle and initiated a pursuit that was joined by a Farina Police officer who utilized a PIT maneuver that brought the fleeing truck to a stop.

At that point, law enforcement approached the truck and the Farina officer discharged his weapon striking Roe.

No law enforcement was injured in the incident. Roe was taken to an area hospital for treatment and was booked into the Fayette County Jail upon his release.

Brownstown Elementary School identified the victim as retired teacher Sandra Stine who is now a substitute teacher. The school states Miss Stine’s home suffered serious damage and she lost a pet in the fire allegedly set by Roe.

A bank account is being set up at the First National Bank of Brownstown to assist Miss Stine with her losses.
