Boeing employee charged after police find meth-making chemicals
One Boeing employee faces charges after authorities found meth-making materials in one of the company's buildings yesterday.
Prosecuting Attorneys say Dennis Banker admitted to police that he not only put the materials in another employee's office, but left a note saying another employee was the one who brought the chemicals into the office. Authorities were alerted to the situation when a fire alarm tripped early Thursday morning.
A check of security cameras showed, Banker entered the building minutes before the alarm.

MO attorney general targets meth "smurfers"
Missouri's attorney general is looking for new ways to curb mathamphetatime use in the state.
At a news conference today, attorney general Chris Koster will outline initiatives against "smurfing," a practice that involves recruiting people to purchase medicines containing pseudoephedrine.
The campaign calls partly for Missouri pharmacies to display warnings at cash registers letting would-be smurfers know their actions have serious consequences.
