CITY HALL — An alderman is warning that the sale of so-called “loosies” — single cigarettes — on the street has the potential of sparking gang wars in the city.
At a City Hall budget hearing Tuesday, Ald. Walter Burnett Jr. (27th) warned of gangs having turf battles over who was entitled to sell loose, untaxed cigarette on various street corners.
