Little offense for the Royals in Monday’s 2-1 loss at Baltimore

Posted on August 1, 2017

It was not a good time for Craig Gentry’s first career walk-off hit last night for the Kansas City Royals. Baltimore’s Gentry’s hit a walk-off RBI single and gave the Orioles a 2-1 win over the Royals Monday night in Baltimore.

Neither team could do much offensively on a night dominated by pitchers. Ubaldo Jimenez pitched seveninnings, gave up one run, and five hits for the Orioles. Danny Duffy pitched well for KC, also going seven innings with one run and seven hits.

The O’s won their third straight and posted their first victory over the Royals this season. Kansas City swept Baltimore in an earlier three-game series. The Orioles are three games below .500 at 51-54, but made no moves after the trade deadline passed yesterday afternoon.

Kansas City remained two games back of Cleveland in the American League Central after the Indians lost to Boston last night, 6-2. Game two of the series in Baltimore begins tonight with radio coverage on 1590 KVGB and 97.7 FM beginning at 5:30.

Police alert public to conflicting info in Kansas serial rape case

Posted on August 1, 2017

Timeline of the reported attacks- Riley Co. Police

RILEY COUNTY – Law enforcement authorities are alerting the public to conflicting information circulating about a serial rapist who is believed to have attacked more than a dozen women from 2000 to 2008 in Manhattan and Lawrence.

According to a social media report from Riley County Police there is a composite sketch going around on a Kansas Missing and Unsolved flyer giving out inaccurate information.

“We want to be clear — this sketch on the flyer is not connected to the sexual assault cases stretching from October 2000 to July 2015.” The organization held a press conference on this investigation last week.

“That composite sketch in question came from another organization’s press release involving a rape case that occurred in August of 2009 that is not connected to the other assaults.”

Officials have said the suspect is usually armed and covers his face. He’s also believed to have conducted some sort of surveillance before the attacks.

Police expressed appreciation in getting the word out about these cases in an effort to gain information that may lead to an arrest. We would like to thank you for sharing facts from trusted sources like the Riley County Police Department and the Lawrence Police Department.
