Sebastian Araujo, 42 and Moises Solano, 50

Sebastian Araujo, 42 and Moises Solano, 50 were scheduled to appear for a bond hearing Tuesday after police found 25 kilos of cocaine, with an estimated street value of more than $2.5 million, on them at a North Side gas station.
After Grand Central Area Spanish Gang Task Force officers received information that a vehicle was being used to transport a large quantity of narcotics from Texas to Chicago, they set up surveillance at a North Side gas station that was supposed to be the drop-off point for the drugs.They saw the vehicle approach the gas station and detained two men, Sebastian Araujo, 42 and Moises Solano, 50, at the scene, according to a release from police News Affairs.While they were being held, a drug-sniffing dog was brought in, who detected something in the rear panels of the vehicle's back seats, the release said.Police removed the panels and found numerous cellophane-wrapped brick-like objects, which were tested and found to be cocaine, the release said. A total of 25 kilos of cocaine was recovered, which has an estimated street value of more than $2.5 million.Araujo and Solano, both of near west suburban Northlake, were taken to the Albany Park District police station for processing and charged with possession of a controlled substance. They were expected to appear for a bond hearing Tuesday, police said.
