A man was shot three times in north St. Louis when police believe he went to look at a car he saw on advertised Craigslist. The victim and two other people went to the 4400 block of Elmbank around 8:00 last night, when two men approached the car with guns and began firing. One victim was struck twice in the back and once in the face. He remains in critical condition. The two other victims were not injured.
Paying union fees could no longer be a condition of employment in Missouri under a bill endorsed by a House committee. The panel voted 7-3 today to adopt what supporters call "right-to-work" legislation. Sponsoring Republican Representative Eric Burlison, of Springfield, says the measure makes Missouri an attractive location for new businesses. Opponents say the measure would weaken labor unions.
It's on to Day Three in the impeaching hearings for Ellisville Mayor Adam Paul. No conclusion was reached last night after another nearly six-hour session at Ellisville Elementary School. The Ellisville City Counsel is seeking to remove Adam Paul from office, claiming he abused and overstepped his authority. The hearing will resume at 1 p.m. today.
