(McHENRY) A northwest suburban man is facing several felony charges after he allegedly sold cocaine to undercover police officers near a park.
Steven M. Grimm, 25, of Arlington Heights, faces three counts each of delivery of a controlled substance within 1,000 feet of a park, delivery of a controlled substance, and possession of a controlled substance, according to the McHenry County sheriff’s office.
The sheriff’s narcotics unit launched an investigation after receiving information about someone selling cocaine in the McHenry area, according to a statement from the sheriff’s office.
On Monday, officers conducted an undercover purchase of cocaine, then later pulled the suspect over at Bull Valley Road and Crystal Lake Avenue in McHenry.
Grimm was arrested and authorities seized about 18.8 grams of cocaine, worth about $1,880, according to the statement.
Bond was set at $200,000 for Grimm, who is next scheduled to appear in court Thursday in Woodstock.
