Chicago City Council committee on solutions to rogue towing company crisis

CHICAGO -- CBS 2 has reported on countless rogue tow truck victims in the city of Chicago – tow 'companies' that show up to the scene of a crash, and then hold cars hostage for exorbitant fees.The Chicago City Council has now taken action.
