Following the Riverside traffic stop, Hallbrooks was arrested and charged with felony aggravated driving while license revoked, police said. He was also charged with not wearing a properly-adjusted seat belt, driving without vehicle insurance and issued several traffic tickets related to the stop.
Hallbrooks' bond was set at $50,000 during a hearing Saturday and he was released on electronic monitoring, according to Cook County court records. His next court appearance was scheduled for Thursday.
