Four charged in Elgin drug bust

Four men face drug and weapons charges after Elgin police executed a search warrant Friday night in the 100 block of Village Court on the city’s east side, police said.

Elgin Deputy Police Chief Jeff Swoboda said the 8:30 p.m. search yielded 160 grams – more than five ounces – of cocaine, a loaded 9 mm handgun and more than $1,000.

“We were able to determine that narcotics were being sold out of the residence,” Swoboda said. “It’s another great arrest by the detectives in our narcotic unit.”

Abel Flores, 39, of the 100 block of Village Court, Elgin, was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, Swoboda said.

The felony charge carries six to 30 years in prison upon conviction.

Flores’ bond has been set at 10 percent of $92,000 and he also was wanted on warrants from Elgin police and Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Winnebago County, Swoboda said.

Luis Diaz, 19, and Carlos Barona, 34, both of the 100 block of Village Court, face felony charges of unlawful use of weapon and possession of a controlled substance, respectively, Swoboda said.

Their bonds are 10 percent of $3,000, Swoboda said.

Angel Flores, 55, of the 1300 block of Cummings Road, Caledonia, was charged with possession of a controlled substance, Swoboda said.

His bond is 10 percent of $5,000, Swoboda said.

All four men are due in court on March 10, Swoboda said.
