(SOUTH ELGIN) Five men are facing drug charges Thursday after being targeted in a heroin investigation in the northwest suburbs.

Officers executed a search warrant Thursday in the 1200 block of Sandhurst Lane in South Elgin, according to the Kane County sheriff’s office. In addition, several coordinated arrests took place Thursday morning throughout Kane County, part of an investigation that was started six weeks ago by the Kane County Heroin Initiative.

During the raids, 27 grams of suspected heroin, with an estimated street value of approximately $1,200, was seized, the sheriff’s office said. Preliminary testing of some of the suspected heroin tested positive for fentanyl, a deadly narcotic sometimes used to cut the drug. Deputies also seized 100 grams of suspected cannabis.
