MOUNT PLEASANT — A Kenosha man allegedly had cocaine and other narcotics in his car.

Jose T. Andrade, 27, of the 4000 block of 50th Street, was charged with felony counts of possession of narcotics and possession of cocaine and misdemeanor counts of possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia and operating a motor vehicle while revoked.

According to a criminal complaint:

At 12:05 a.m. on Tuesday, an officer initiated a traffic stop on a vehicle that was traveling in the 6200 block of Durand Avenue. 

Upon approaching the vehicle, the officer made contact with the driver, Andrade, and noticed he appeared to be extremely nervous. The vehicle was searched and the officer immediately saw a white pill inside the door handle area of the driver door.

A search of Andrade found $971 in cash on him. Inside the car was a plastic baggie with 14 pills of Alprazolam and 10 pills of Oxycodone Hydrochloride, 0.4 grams of cocaine stuck between the driver seat and center console and a baggie of cocaine weighing 0.5 grams. Inside the center console was a pill bottle that had 0.1 grams of cocaine, and behind the passenger seat was a digital scale. Inside the glove box was a glass pipe.

Andrade denied knowledge of the pills inside the vehicle, but said he did smoke crack cocaine but did not purchase the cocaine that was found inside the vehicle; he stated the vehicle was his friend's.

Andrade was given a $1,000 cash bond in Racine County Circuit Court on Tuesday. A preliminary hearing is on June 2 at the Racine County Law Enforcement Center, 717 Wisconsin Ave., online court records show.
