FRANKFORT – Police say a teen was selling ecstasy and other narcotics before his arrest Tuesday.

Metropolitan Area Narcotics Squad Director Mike Weber said Christian Lohmann, 18, was the subject of a short-term investigation for allegedly selling ecstasy and MDMA in the Frankfort area and south suburbs.

"We obtained information to execute a search warrant about 4 p.m. at his home. He ran out the back door but was apprehended a short distance away after a foot pursuit," Weber said.

Agents reportedly found nearly 2 ounces of powdered MDMA inside Lohmann's residence in the 20000 block of Graceland Lane.

Lohmann was arrested on a charge of drug trafficking and booked into the Will County jail. He is being held on $250,000 bond.
