A total of six tax preparation businesses were the target of IRS raids today.
Fox 2 reports agents seized evidence from six locations of Tax King starting at 8:30 this morning. IRS officials have still not said what they were looking for, but did confirm that no arrests were made today--they have not ruled out future arrests though. The raids were conducted at locations in downtown, midtown, and North St. Louis.
Two people are recovering from injuries after a tractor-trailer accident in Madison County. It happened just after 8:00 Friday morning.
Police say the semi had been eastbound on I-270 when it left the road just east of the Canal Bridge. The big rig broke through a barrier and rolled down to a construction road where it overturned.
EMS crews treated two people at the scene, including the truck driver.
It's not clear why the driver lost control of the semi or who the other injured person is.
Schweich announces audit of DNR's Hazardous Waste Program
Friday, 05 April 2013 10:20 Published in Local News
Missouri Auditor Tom Schweich says his office will audit the state agency assigned to protect the environment and public health from hazardous waste.
The announcement follows reports of problems with oversight at the cleanup of the former Carondelet Coke site in St. Louis. A St. Louis Post-Dispatch report says that clean up cost taxpayers more than $12 million. while former owners Laclede Gas and SGL Group were paying less than a million dollars combined and Carondelet Coke owner J. Donald Crane was getting off the hook entirely. The 42 acre site had been considered one of the most contaminated in the state.
Schweich announced the audit of the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Hazardous Waste Program Friday morning. State law gives the auditor the authority to audit state agencies and programs.
Anyone who would like to provide information during the audit process is encouraged to contact the State Auditor's office at 800-347-8597 or by email at moaudit@auditor.mo.gov.
