Police arrested 23 people and seized three vehicles and three weapons in a drug
sweep that targeted two gangs in the city’s Uptown neighborhood.
The sweep on Thursday followed a long-term
investigation that was spurred by unsolved shootings and homicides in the area
of Argyle Street to Wilson Avenues and Racine Avenue to Lake Shore Drive.
Detectives uncovered heroin, crack cocaine, marijuana and illegal
prescription medications. Three weapons, three vehicles and cash also were
seized in the sweep.
Twenty-three people that included gang
members with extensive criminal backgrounds were arrested. An additional 10
people are being sought in connection with the investigation
