Apparently Kansas City isn't the only city in desperate need of infastructure improvements - -as in St. Louis, a nine year old girl fell in a manhole when the manhole cover was stolen.
The Star, of course, completely failed at a local angle for the story --which would be easy to find. KC has more than a few manhole covers missing around town -- and I routinely find myself jumping/swerving etc to be sure I don't step in a big hole while walking my dogs.
Just another reminder of why the little things matter to cities...
