PERU – A Peru man is facing two felony charges for Ecstasy after being arrested on Sunday. According to Peru Police Chief Doug Bernabei, 21-year-old Cesar Pantoja was arrested Sunday evening after an investigation by the Peru Police and Trident Drug Task Force. Detectives alledge that last month Pantoja delivered Ecstasy, or MDMA to undercover agents in an operation in LaSalle and Peru.
Chief Bernabei stated, “I am very pleased with the cooperative efforts of these two drug units. The distribution of drugs knows no boarders, no community is immune, but please know that local law enforcement is committed to working together to make for a safer Illinois Valley Community.”
Pantoja is being held in the LaSalle County Jail on a half a million dollars bond.
