Officers near 14th and Wesley saw a bicyclist appear to speed up to get further away from police. Because of the high rate of crime and graffiti in that area, this piqued officers' interest, so they caught up and asked what the 22-year-old Cicero man had on him. "I have some weed," came the helpful response. Police retrieved three yellow plastic baggies with a design of batwings. A name check showed the man also had two active warrants: one from DuPage County and the other from the Cicero Police. The man was arrested and handed over to Cicero; the baggies held 3.6 grams of pot, for which he was ticketed.
