<p>Three men were hit with federal drug charges last week. They allegedly had a role in a narcotics pipeline from Mexico to Chicago. Authorities seized a private plane and 100 kilograms of cocaine in this investigation.</p>
<p>Federal agents on Wednesday discovered 80 kilograms of cocaine in a vehicle in Chicago’s River North neighborhood and another 20 kilograms of the drug in a hotel room in the city’s Gold Coast neighborhood.</p>

<p>On Monday, federal agents obtained a warrant to seize the private plane, a Bombardier Challenger 600. Vazquez-Gamez allegedly arrived on the plane from Houston and loaded suitcases full of cocaine into a Lincoln Navigator sport utility vehicle. He then entered the SUV and together with others was driven to the hotel in Chicago.</p>

<p>Outside the hotel, he loaded some of the suitcases into a Toyota Highlander sport utility vehicle allegedly driven by Jimenez-Perez. Agents pulled over the Toyota a few blocks away, seized the suitcases containing 80 kilograms of cocaine, and arrested Jimenez-Perez. Agents later arrested Vazquez-Gamez in his hotel room, where they seized the other 20 kilograms of cocaine.</p>
<p>Blas is being accused of directing Jimenez-Perez where to meet Vazquez-Gamez to pick up the cocaine.</p>
