A trafficking operation that used Chinatown buses and cars to bring 2 million contraband cigarettes into New York City every week has been extinguished by authorities.
The alleged ringleaders ran a tobacco shop in Virginia, where taxes are far lower, and would buy large quantities of smokes at about $40 a carton, said city Sheriff Joseph Fucito.
