 Chattanooga City Council examines $500,000 request for gang task force: |
(5/16/2012) Chattanooga City Council members questioned the gang task force, police and fire pension board, and social service agency budgets on Tuesday.

The task force has applied for three separate federal grants, each worth up to $1.5 million for the federal fiscal year 2013, which begins Oct. 1.

(5/15/2012) Claiming essentially that it is a wretched hive of scum and villainy, the State of Texas and Harris County are attempting to force a Southwest Houston condominium complex to clean up its act or shut down -- and each and every unit owner is listed as a defendant. According to the suit filed April 24 by Harris County Attorney Vince Ryan, Le Promenade condos at 7400 Bissonnet "are causing a common nuisance by habitually harboring criminal activity" and "causing a public nuisance by maintaining a place that is habitually used for engaging in gang activity. "Le Promenade is where some members of a notorious Houston gang, La Primera, live and where they recruit members from adjacent Sharpstown High School," the suit continues. "Le Promenade is where gang fights between La Primera and a rival gang, the Southwest Cholos, occur." |
