Two Chicago men were arrested together in Carpentersville on a series of drug charges Thursday night, police said.

Preston Miller, 22, of the 900 block of West 68th Street, was charged with possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, possession of a controlled substance less than 15 grams and possession of marijuana less than 15 grams.

At 9:25 p.m. Thursday, police executed a search warrant in the 3000 block of Wakefield Drive within the Fox View Apartments, discovering a digital scale, 1.25 grams of crack cocaine and one gram of marijuana that police say belong to Miller, a report said.

Ingram was in the apartment as well and police found 21.8 grams of crack cocaine on him - one gram of crack is with $100 on the street, Cmdr. Timothy Bosshart said.

On Friday morning, Kane County Judge Bruce Lester set Ingram's bond at $75,000 and Miller's at $60,000.
