 Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed three lawsuits Tuesday against businesses accused of price gouging during Hurricane Harvey.
</span></span><p>The last defendant targeted by the lawsuits is Encinal Fuel Stop, a Chevron-branded gas station outside of Laredo, Texas. The station allegedly charged $8.99 and $9.99 per gallon of regular fuel on Aug. 31, Paxton's office said. </p><p><a href="http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/SOTWDocs/BC/htm/BC.17.htm#17.46">Price gouging can carry      </a> a civil penalty of up to $20,000 for each violation, and an additional amount up to $250,000 for incidents that targeted people 65 years of age and older. </p><p>Paxton's office said its Consumer Protection Division had received more than 3,300 price gouging complaints tied to Harvey as of Tuesday. </p><p>Copyright 2017 U.S. News &amp; World Report</p><p></p>
