COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) - A suburban St. Louis couple's $5 million donation to the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine will go toward improving research for drugs used to fight cancer in both animals and people.
The university announced the estate gift from Cottrell and Kay Fox of Town and Country on Monday.

The university says in a news release that the Foxes' gift will support an endowment in companion animal medicine. It also will fund research to develop treatments for people and animals with cancer and improve training for graduate students and veterinary oncology residents.
Cottrell Fox is a 1971 graduate of the university's journalism school.

Illinois State Police break up suspected auto-theft operation
Monday, 11 February 2013 16:19 Published in Local News GRANITE CITY, Ill. (AP) - Illinois State Police believe investigators have broken up an auto-theft operation by raiding a southwestern Illinois storage lot where they say they found suspected stolen vehicles and $300,000 worth of fine china.

The investigation involves officials from Illinois State Police and regional law-enforcement agencies.
