Authorities said 26-year-old Xavier Harris worked with his brother, 27-year-old Ardaries Harris, along with Jordan Fox, 25, and Roosevelt Veal, 27, in robbing over a dozen businesses in 2023 and 2024.
The indictment said the group conspired to rob the following businesses in Chicago:
The group reportedly used stolen vehicles as getaway cars, wore masks and brandished guns during the incidents. During some of the robberies, the group fired shots from machine guns, according to the indictment.
Ardaries, Fox and Veal were originally charged in 2024 with conspiracy, robbery and gun charges in connection with five robberies or attempted robberies.
The superseding indictment adds Xavier as a defendant, charges 10 more robberies or attempted robberies and raises the mandatory minimum sentence for Ardaries, Fox and Veal to 30 years each, according to authorities.
Officials said Xavier faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 21 years, while the maximum sentence for each of the four members of the group is life in prison.
Xavier was arrested Thursday, March 27 and was arraigned in court on Friday, March 28, where he pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Ardaries, Fox and Veal, meanwhile, were already in federal custody and will be arraigned at a later date.
