Gun, drugs found in traffic stop:
Ty C. Glissendorf, 39, of the 1000 block of N. Pleasure Court, Aurora, was hit with a variety of charges after an officer found him with a gun and cocaine during a traffic stop at 2:07 a.m. Wednesday, Round Lake Park police said. Police Chief George Filenko said Glissendorf was driving a Ford pickup truck when he was stopped for illegal lane usage at Hainesville Road and Lake Avenue. The arresting officer then detected an object in Glissendorf's pants pocket that turned out to be 1.2 grams of cocaine wrapped in a $50 bill, Filenko said. Before the truck was towed, the officer searched inside and discovered an unloaded .45-caliber semiautomatic gun behind the driver's seat, Filenko said. Glissendorf was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, driving under the influence of drugs, driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs, possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia and unlawful use of weapon. Glissendorf was taken to the Lake County jail in Waukegan, but his bond information was not immediately available.
