According to a news report from examiner.com, “A D.C. Council member is proposing legislation to crack down on selling pizza slices in a northwest neighborhood.”

“Council member Jim Graham says pizza parlors on 18th Street northwest in Adams Morgan are part of the problem with neighborhood crime,” said the story. “Graham says the eateries stay open until 4:30 a.m., and “tolerate a certain level of violence.” Although they’re operating legally, he says the restaurants have become a nuisance.”
