A 22-year-old Batavia man remains in Cook County Jail on drug charges in connection to a March traffic stop on Chicago’s Northwest Side.
Diego Luna, of the 1200 block of East Wilson Street, was arrested March 26 by tactical officers in the Jefferson Park neighborhood, according to Chicago police, who said Luna had nearly 10 pounds of marijuana, a small amount of an unspecified controlled substance, cash and other items at the time of the stop. Prosecutors charged Luna with manufacturing and delivery of marijuana.
Luna – who is being held on $100,000 bail, according to the Cook County Sheriff’s Office – was listed in jail records as having a court appearance on Thursday, but Cook County prosecutors said Luna has a hearing scheduled for April 17.
Kane and Kendall county court records show Luna with a history of minor traffic violations.
