An investigation into possible manipulation of gasoline prices has uncovered “disturbing” revelations, Attorney General Eric Holder said today.
“There are a couple things that … are disturbing,” Holder said, declining to elaborate.
He indicated the information would be reviewed by a fraud task force formed last week.
For the week that ended Monday, the nationwide average cost of a gallon of gasoline rose 3.5 cents, to $3.879, the Energy Department reported.
