The Ferguson Fuss Continues
posted (December 31, 2012)
On Friday, we ended our newscast with Paul Ferguson, the Chicken Dread, who continues to defy City Hall on principle in relation to his quest to sell his fried chicken on the street corner in front of the Abdul Building.

As we showed you, Ferguson was once again shutdown and removed from his favorite spot by police. He was as defiant as ever when he instructed his family members to continue to sell chicken at that spot because according to him, they can only stop him, and no one else.

Well, when he was eventually removed on Friday, essentially, nothing happened. He was taken away by police who released him later on because no new charges which were brought against him.

So, even though the City enforcement unit told us that it was acting under orders from the Mayor, it seems that Ferguson didn't violate any other law.

So, he's out tonight, and he told us this evening that he will be operating somewhere on Albert Street tonight and during New Year's night.

He didn't tell us exactly where he'll be selling his chicken from, but we would hazard a guess that he might be right back where he was when police moved him on Friday.
