Madison Police arrested two Madison men after finding small plastic bags containing cocaine on the suspects on the 4600 block of Verona Road Saturday night.
The suspects, Juan Ledezma Gonzalez, 20, and Adan Ramirez Hernandez, 23, were arrested for tentative charges of possession with intent to deliver cocaine, according to the police incident report.
An officer noticed the suspects move to a vehicle that had no associated registration displayed, Madison Police officer Howard Payne said.
Police said the officer tried to stop the vehicle, but it continued to move. The suspects proceeded to look back at the officer while moving around in the vehicle, Payne said.
The officer then called for backup, believing either evidence of a crime was being manipulated or a weapon was being obtained, Payne said.
""The occupants were said to be sweating profusely even though it was a mere 32 degrees, and after a search commenced officers located at least six baggies containing more than a half gram each,"" Payne said in a statement.
The suspects were then transported to the Dane County Jail.
""It was thought that both subjects previously had and currently maintain gang ties/affiliations,"" Payne said in a statement.
