Lawrence woman raped early Monday morning
A 20-year-old woman from Lawrence was raped about 4 a.m. on Monday, said Lt. David Cobb of the Lawrence Police Department.
The victim reported the rape immediately after it happened and the suspect was still in the area when officers arrived on the scene, Cobb said.
Cobb said the rape occurred in a motel in central Lawrence. The suspect, Kenneth Brouhard, is a 21-year-old male from Lecompont and is an acquaintance of the victim, Cobb said.
Brouhard was arrested and was being held at the Douglas County Jail on charges of rape and aggravated criminal sodomy on $25,000 bond.
Neither the victim nor the suspect are University of Kansas students. Cobb said there were no date-rape drugs involved.

Explosive detonates in principal's mailbox
EMPORIA — Five Emporia High School students have been arrested in connection with an explosive that detonated in a middle school official's mailbox, police said.
The students, who range in age from 14 to 17, were arrested Saturday on suspicion of arson and conspiracy to commit arson and released to their families, Deputy Police Chief Mike Williams said. The Lyon County prosecutor's office said the students had not been charged as of late yesterday morning.
The investigation began Jan. 28 after an explosive device went off in
the mailbox at the residence of David Krumme, assistant principal at Emporia Middle School.
"It appears that this is related to and directed at Mr. Krumme with regard to a school-related incident a year ago and one of the juveniles," Williams said.
No one was hurt and the explosion caused no significant damage, Williams said. He said he was waiting for laboratory tests to determine what kind of explosive was used.
Williams said there was no connection to the bomb threats made against Emporia schools in September.
NATION
NEW YORK — Two designs that would put the tallest buildings in the world at the site of the World Trade Center were selected yesterday as the finalists in the plan to redevelop ground zero.
Design finalists selected for WTC redevelopment
The plan from Berlin architect Daniel Libeskind calls for glassy, angular buildings clustered around the foundations of the fallen towers. The other, proposed by an international team of design firms known as THINK, evokes the original trade center with twin towers of ethereal latticework.
The final plan will be picked at the end of the month.
"What we're doing today is advancing two extraordinary designs," said Roland Betts, head of the redevelopment planning committee.
The final designs include a conceptual vision for where the victims' memorial might be built, but a specific plan is scheduled to be chosen in September after an international competition.
