An Indiana gun store that was tied to hundreds of crime guns recovered in Chicago has announced that it will be closing shop, following an Everytown Law lawsuit on behalf of the City of Chicago.
usatoday.com/story/news/nati…
Community note
The lawsuit from Everytown had been thrown out of court by a Cook County judge months before. Store owner Earl Westforth is retiring after 50 years in business, and the closing is unrelated to the lawsuit.
