Chicago police: Uptown drug market busted

June 23, 2011 (CHICAGO)

Police announced 18 arrests, and 11 more people are still being sought after the four-month investigation.

The investigation focused on drug sales by known gang members at several locations in the Uptown neighborhood.

It was a follow-up to a similar operation in January that shut down a gang drug operation that took in a half-million dollars a year in the area.
