PEORIA Ill. – Two men have been arrested for the alleged illegal sale of a controlled substance — and possessing a firearm under the legal age.
On Friday last week, just after 6:30am, Peoria Police’s SWAT Division executed a search warrant on a residence in the 2400 Block of West Marquette, for the Unlawful Possession and Delivery of a controlled substance.
During a search of the residence, officers located illegal drugs, drug equipment, drug packaging, currency, and a handgun.
The handgun was reported stolen.
Police arrested 40-year-old David Purdle on multiple charges of the possession and delivery of cannabis.

Both males were transported to the Peoria County Jail.
