Central Illinois police are cracking down on drugs and they say a recent arrest should send a message to drug dealers in the community. Authorities arrested Kyle Mason on a search warrant, after he picked up a package containing two pounds of marijuana from a post office in Cooksville. McLean County Sheriff Mike Emery says the investigation involves other rural McLean County communities.
