The stranded motorist was in on it, as were the bickering tow truck operators.
The only one who didn't know what was going on was Ali Haleem, a crooked Chicago police officer accused of regularly making extra cash by illegally steering business to bribe-paying truck drivers.
As part of the FBI sting in 2008, one undercover female agent posed as a motorist stranded by a flat tire at 47th Street and Cicero Avenue. Two competing tow trucks showed up at the scene vying for the business — one with two undercover FBI agents and the other with a real tow truck driver who was secretly cooperating with the FBI and had a history with Haleem.
