ST. LOUIS (AP) — A man charged with sexually assaulting a male University of Missouri-St. Louis student at gunpoint earlier this month inside an on-campus apartment is charged with a similar crime at a Kansas State University fraternity house.

Devonta Bagley, 23, Belton, Missouri, is jailed on $500,000 bond on charges of sodomy, armed criminal action and burglary in the Missouri case. No attorney is listed for him in online Missouri court records.

He faces similar charges in Riley County, Kansas, where court records say he sexually assaulted a 20-year-old inside the Sigma Chi fraternity house in September while the man was “unconscious or physically powerless.”

Officials say Bagley had been a graduate student at UMSL, but was expelled last fall after a student conduct hearing.

The Junction City Commission has authorized the lease of 42 QuieTech gasoline powered golf carts for use at Rolling Meadows Golf Course.  They will replace 42 electric golf carts.

The lease on the new carts will be for five years with annual payments of $27,342.

The PGA General Manager for the course, John Bernstein told the Commission that an annual payment is made that is split into six payments. “And our revenues for carts have averaged in my seven years there approximately $65,000. Right now it is a $15 per rider for 18 holes.” That equates to $30 per cart.

The new carts will have an overhead canopy to protect golfers from the sun and a carbon windshield that doesn’t shatter and can fold down Bernstein noted these will be very basic golf carts.

The two-day Red Cross blood drive in Junction City met its two-day goal.

According to spokesperson Jolene Stackhouse 112 units of blood were donated, which would save an estimated 336 lives.

The blood drive was held at the Municipal Building.
