Gun rules could extend to all of Cook County
CHICAGO – Mayor Rahm Emanuel is seeking to broaden a requirement for gun owners to report the loss, theft or sale of firearms to include all of Cook County.
It’s the latest measure aimed at stopping the flow of illegal guns into Chicago, where homicides have risen.
The Chicago Sun-Times reported Saturday that a new Chicago ordinance would also double the jail time to six months for violators.
