Thefts of school buses puzzle St. Louis-area authorities

From The St. Louis Post-Dispatch: Eight school buses have been stolen in the St. Louis area in the last several months, and none of them has been found. Police say at least one full-size regulation yellow bus has disappeared each month since September — plus one in May — from five locations in south St. Louis County or Jefferson County. Exactly when these were stolen is hard to pinpoint because they went missing on weekends or other times when school was not in session. The victims are two parochial schools, a public school and two locations belonging to a company that contracts for transportation.
