Aurora Police have secured single counts of attempted murder and attempted armed robbery against an additional suspect in a Nov. 24 shooting on Aurora’s West Side and are asking the public for assistance in locating the man.

An arrest warrant for Patrick F. Maloney, 20, whose last known address is in the 700 block of North Gladstone Avenue, in Aurora, was issued Dec. 3. He is accused of driving one of the vehicles involved in an attempted drug rip-off involving two groups of men in the 2000 block of Coral Avenue.

Maloney is a white male, 6 feet, 2 inches tall, 200 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

He is the brother of Antonio Isais, 18, of Aurora who faces the same charges as Maloney and another suspect in connection with the shooting. Isais is also one of two men shot and critically injured in the incident. Isais and the other man shot, a 20 year old Auroran, have since been released from an Aurora hospital. Isais is being held in lieu of $250,000 bail at the Kane County Correctional Center in St. Charles. The 20 year old has not been charged.

The third suspect, Jordy Arreola, 17, of the 600 block of North Avenue, Aurora, is also charged with attempted murder and attempted armed robbery. He remains in the Kane County Juvenile Justice Center in St. Charles and is charged as an adult in the case.

The attempted murder charge is a Class-X felony which means it carries heightened penalties upon conviction.

Anyone who may have information on Maloney’s whereabouts should call Aurora Police Investigators at (630) 256-5500 or Aurora Area Crime Stoppers at (630) 892-1000. Calls to Crime Stoppers are anonymous and qualify for a cash reward of up to $5,000 for information that leads to his arrest.
