Streator, IL – Authorities raided multiple homes Monday in connection to a drug trafficking and stolen property operation.
The Tri-County Drug Enforcement Narcotics Team (TRIDENT) led the investigation, targeting a criminal group linked to six counties. Agents reportedly seized 200 grams of cocaine and $28,800 in stolen goods, including firearms and tools.
According to TRIDENT, search warrants were executed at five Streator residences. Arrests included Keith G. Gullens, 35, and Robert L. Phillips, 49, charged with allegations of calculated drug conspiracy. David L. Miller, 35, was charged with alleged unlawful delivery of a controlled substance.
Arthur E. Cook, 52, faces charges of possessing stolen property, while Darryl Gullens, 35, remains wanted. Investigators also recovered stolen firearms, one tied to a Streator theft in June.
TRIDENT collaborated with law enforcement across six counties, including the LaSalle County Sheriff’s Office and Ottawa Police Department. Additional charges may follow as investigations continue.
All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
