CHICAGO -- A north suburban man is in federal custody after U.S. drug agents say he was selling kilo quantities of cocaine from his kitchen.
They said several kilos of cocaine were found inside a safe in the master bedroom. They also found two stacks of money there. Pictures provided by the U.S. attorney's office show Almanza's alleged operation set up in his suburban kitchen and he is depicted answering the front door of his Dugdale Road residence in a video grab from an undercover operative's hidden camera.
A .22-caliber pistol was among the items authorities said they found during a court-authorized search of Almanza's suburban home last month.U.S. drug investigators said the customer base for this operation was primarily from metro Chicago, but that some were from Wisconsin, Indiana and Michigan.
