Chicago Police seized a million dollars in drugs in a bust on the northwest side this weekend.

At a news conference Sunday (10-21), Lt. Eric Carter showed off the cache, including seven kilos of cocaine, more than 43 pounds of cannabis, 378,000 dollars in cash and handguns.

The bust was part of an on-going investigation conducted by the department's narcotics and gang investigation section (NAGIS).

Undercover teams had 25 year-old Oswaldo Sanchez under surveillance. Carter says they noticed suspicious activity with his cars. Police K-9s sniffed the cars and that led to the find in his home.

Sanchez has been charged with drug possession and five separate counts f weapons charges.

The cash, drugs, scales and guns were concealed in closets and in the kitchen.
