WHEELING, Ill. - A Cook County man was arrested last week after law enforcement found guns, narcotics and a large amount of money in his possession.
Andy Bardesi Mozo, 24, of Wheeling, faces multiple felonies including armed violence, unlawful use of a weapon, and several counts of possession with intent to deliver narcotics and cannabis.
At about 9:15 a.m. on Friday, Park Ridge detectives, along with law enforcement officers assigned to a multi-jurisdictional narcotics task force, executed a search warrant at 70 Buckboard Dr. in Wheeling as a result of an ongoing narcotics investigation.
Before entering the residence, officers attempted to make verbal contact with the offender, Mozo, who allegedly fled from the residence on foot while carrying a backpack. Mozo was apprehended a short while later.
The backpack allegedly contained a semi-automatic handgun and narcotics.
While conducting a search warrant at the residence, officers found a large amount of narcotics including amphetamines, cannabis, psilocybin mushrooms, cocaine and Xanax.
Additionally, officers recovered a Glock semi-automatic handgun with a fully automatic switch and a large amount of United States currency.
Mozo was processed and transported to the Cook County Courthouse for a detention hearing.
