Radcliffe’s alleged partner in the burglary is Eli Ruff, a 19-year-old who’s accused of beating an elderly Wrigleyville woman during a home invasion with two other men in January.
• Meanwhile, a 19-year-old man charged with burglarizing an occupied Lincoln Park apartment at 1AM on November 27 has received a sentence of 30 months probation.
