Students from EKU had their belongings stolen while in St. Louis for a school project.
“It was a bad feeling, knowing that in the blink of an eye everything no matter how great your day is could have changed, and it did,” said student Whitney Rice.
While on their way out of town, nearly two dozen students stopped at City Museum in St. Louis.
While their bus was parked in the parking lot, thieves used an RV as cover to hop the fence, break into the bus and steal their belongings.

Our sister station KSDK said that people drove by as the students’ bags were tossed over a fence.
Student A.J. Gillette has family in St. Louis and told LEX 18 that he pretty much grew up there.
“To have 23 students come and see the city that I have bragged so much about, and this happen to it; I personally felt embarrassed,” said Gillette.
A GoFundMe has been created to help the students replace some of their stolen belongings.
