lawsuit

A Kansas City, Kansas, woman filed whistleblower and civil rights claims against the housing authority, saying employees misused federal funds in exchange for tenants' food stamps. The scheme preyed upon "the most vulnerable" residents, the lawsuit says.

The Sun Fresh Market at Linwood Shopping Center closed in August due to increasing issues with crime and a lack of customers. The lawsuit alleges Kansas City undermined and neglected the store, which caused it to close.
