Saturday, 18 May 2013 04:06 Published in Local News
Employees at a St. Charles Chuck E. Cheese are being praised for how they dealt with a child being left behind yesterday.
The St. Charles police say a two-year-old boy was left behind at the restaurant by his daycare. He was one of 14 kids taken to the Chuck E Cheese by two women who work for Rich & Little Daycare in Moline Acres. Fox 2 reports that witnesses say there were just too many kids for only two employees.
Chuck E. Cheese employees noticed the boy wandering around and called police. The officers said the employees handled the situation perfectly. The boy has been reunited with his mother. An investigation into the situation is ongoing.

New regulations on scrap metal dealers could be on the way
Friday, 17 May 2013 14:04 Published in Local News
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - Missouri lawmakers have given final approval to legislation that would require scrap metal dealers to collect more information from the people who sell them metal.
A 2008 state law required scrap dealers to keep records for transactions involving aluminum and copper. The new legislation would require dealers to also record sales involving catalytic converters. Dealers also would have to keep track of the license plate numbers of sellers.
Scrap metal dealers would be prohibited from buying metal that is identified as belonging to telecommunications or cable providers.
The legislation gained final approval Friday, and it now goes to Gov. Jay Nixon.
