CITY GAVE 'PASS' TO RATHOLE KFC


    A city health inspector gave a passing grade to the notoriously filthy, vermin-infested KFC/Taco Bell just one day before shuttering it - after news cameras recorded a rat rampage through the Greenwich Village restaurant.

    "We're looking to see if the inspector dropped the ball on this," said Health Department spokesman Geoffrey Cowley. "I think it may not have been as rigorous an inspection as it should have been."
