Missing Lawrence resident last seen Saturday morning
A 22-year-old man was reported missing since Saturday, Lawrence police said yesterday.
Bruce Rone was last seen by his mother at 8:30 a.m. Saturday at a residence in the 800 block of Walnut Street. His mother called the police to report his disappearance.
She told police it was common for Rone to leave home for a period of time, but he always called to let her know where he was, Sgt. Mike Pattrick said. This time, Rone hasn't called.
Rone's mother said he left voluntarily, and police said they did not suspect foul play.

KU administrator to speak as part of Gamma Week
Janet Murguia, executive vice chancellor for University Relations, will speak about diversity of minority women at 6:30 p.m. today at the Multicultural Resource Center.
Her speech is sponsored by Sigma Lambda Gamma sorority and is part of its Gamma Week activities.
Anissa Vitale, Shawnee senior and secretary for the sorority, said the organization chose Murgia to speak because she was one of the highest-ranking Hispanic officials at the University.
"She's making change through awareness," Vitale said. "She has a lot of extraordinary accomplishments."
Murguia's speech is also a part of Hispanic Heritage Month activities.

Sorority selling ribbons to benefit disaster victims.
The National Panhellenic Council is selling black ribbons to raise money for victims of the terrorist attacks in New York.
Jehan Mohammed, Kansas City, Kan., senior and member of Delta Sigma Theta sorority, said council members had raised more than $100 to benefit United Way of New York after the attack.
"It was a horrible situation, that's why we are having members of the organizations help out," Mghammed said.
Mohammed said people could donate whatever they could. She said members were distributing the ribbons and would continue through next week.
Jennifer Morrow, Kansas City, Kan., junior and Delta Sigma Theta member, said students should come together as a community to aid the victims.
"People should try to help out as much as they can," Morrow said.
Rescue: Congress supports use of force

Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz told reporters at the Pentagon that the U.S. response to the attacks that wrought these horrors would unfold over time.
"One thing that is clear is you don't do it with just a single military strike, no matter how dramatic," Wolfowitz said.
In Congress, a bipartisan coalition worked on approving two measures: an emergency anti-terrorism package that could cost $20 billion and support for the use of force by Bush against those responsible.
In New York, the difficulties of extracting bodies from the rubble meant that although 184 deaths had been confirmed, city officials prepared to watch the total soar. The missing included nearly 400 city firefighters and police officers. Another 2,300 people were injured.
The lone bit of bright news was the recovery of two firefighters who slipped into an underground pocket beneath the rubble while searching for survivors yesterday. The two radioed for help and were rescued by fellow firefighters several hours after they fell.
At One Liberty Plaza, an office building near the trade center site, volunteers were evacuated when the top 10 stories of the complex appeared unsteady. Workers fled, sprinting down the street.
At a grief center set up for families with missing relatives, Jeanine Nardone arrived to look for her brother. She had hung his photo
in a Brooklyn subway station, hoping someone would recognize Mario Nardone — a 32-year-old Staten Islander, 6-foot-1, 180 pounds, bald with blue eyes, who worked on the 83rd floor of Two World Trade Center.
"He's a strong person," Nardone said. "He would not give up on us. And I'm not going to give up on him."
The government gave the go-ahead for commercial flights to resume and some did, but schedules were expected to be in disarray, and heavy security was the rule.
Under the tightest airport security since the Persian Gulf War in 1991, there will be no more curbside check-ins or visits to terminal gates to meet passengers.
Knives and other cutting tools,
even plastic ones, are prohibited. Mail and cargo are temporarily banned from passenger flights.
Bond trading resumed, while Wall Street officials said the stock markets were expected to open again on Monday. The shutdown of the New York Stock Exchange was already longer than the two-day closure at the end of World War II; the longest lasted a week, after the 1929 crash.
In Washington, the Senate was evacuated because of a bomb scare, and officials disclosed that Vice President Dick Cheney moved to Camp David in what his representative called "a purely precautionary measure."
"From a security standpoint, this is not business-as-usual any more," said press secretary Juleanna Glover.
Search: FBI probe extends across globe

"They were talking about what a bad place America is. They said 'Wait 'til tomorrow. America is going to see bloodshed,'" said John Kap, manager of the Pink Pony and Red Eyed Jack's Sports Bar. Kap said they made the claims to a bartender and a patron.
Kap said he told FBI investigators the men in his bar spent $200 to $300 apiece on lap dances and drinks, paying with credit cards. Kap said he gave the FBI credit card receipts, photocopied driver's licenses, a business card left by one man and a copy of the Quran that was left at the bar.
While investigators pieced together evidence, two former Florida flight school students were identified by German authorities as terrorists aboard the two planes that smashed into the World Trade Center.
Hamburg investigators said Mohamed Atta, 33, and Marwan Alshehhi, 23, had studied at the Technical University in Hamburg and were from the United Arab Emirates. Both men received pilot training at Huffman Aviation, a flight school in Venice, Fla., where FBI investigators are examining student records.
FBI investigators learned that Atta and Alshehhi also took two three-hour courses at SimCenter Inc. in Opa-locka, said Brian
George, son of flight school owner Henry George.
"We were completely stunned and shocked," Brian George said yesterday. "My father said that if he didn't have a family to support, he would stop teaching tomorrow. To think that someone would take what he taught them and turn it into a weapon."
Both men trained on a Boeing 727 full-motion simulator, he said.
Neighbor Wendy Harp said her 12-year-old daughter often played with Bukhari's children and she called a sheriff's investigator yesterday because she was concerned about her family's safety.
Agents were questioning Saudi flight engineer Adnan Buhari, 41, whom a county sheriff's official said was cooperating with FBI inquiries. Bukhari was a student at Flight Safety, which trains commercial let crews.
Agents searched four Vero Beach homes, including Bukhari's and the house next door, where another Flight Safety student, Abdulrahman Alomari, lived with his wife and four children.
Landlord Lonny Mixel said yesterday that Alomari arrived in July 2000 and told him he was a commercial pilot from Saudi Arabia and was in Vero Beach to attend Flight Safety Academy.
FBI agents were also interviewing three Saudi flight engineers who are taking classes at Flight Safety Academy, company representative Roger Ritchie said yesterday. He declined to identify the students.
FBI agents also sought information on a graduate of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, The News-Journal of Daytona Beach reported.
Citing two unidentified law enforcement sources, the newspaper reported that Waleed Al Shehri, 25, was listed as a passenger on the American Airlines flight that left Boston and crashed into the World Trade Center.
Al Shehri graduated from Embry-Riddle in 1997 with a bachelor's degree in aeronautical science, the university's commercial pilot training degree, and is listed as having a commercial pilot's license.
In Pompano Beach, FBI agents went Wednesday night to Warrick's Rent-A-Car to confiscate rental contracts, receipts and Visa credit card charge slips on a series of three rentals by Atta beginning Aug. 6, owner Brad Warrick said yesterday.
"He appeared to me to be just a very conscientious, nice businessman," Warrick said. "I'm really just a little small, hole-in-the-wall rental office ... We're an inconspicuous place to go."
■ HAMBURG, Germany — German investigators said yesterday that three hijackers aboard the planes in the U.S. terror attacks once lived in Hamburg and were
part of an organization formed this year to destroy American targets.
German authorities, acting on tips from the FBI, also said that they had detained at least one man in connection with Tuesday's attacks and were searching for another.
In France, special anti-terrorism prosecutors tried to find links with militant Islamic networks in their country, while police in Rome reopened the case of a theft of uniforms and badges belonging to two American Airlines pilots in April.
Two of the men identified by Hamburg police as having perished in the attacks were Mohamed Atta and Marwan Alshehhi, both from the United Arab Emirates.
However, chief federal prosecutor Kay Nehm said that they did have links to other terror cells abroad.
Meanwhile, Attorney General John Ashcroft said the FBI has determined that a total of 18 hijackers were on the four hijacked planes. There were five on each of two planes and four each on the other two. U.S. officials said all the hijackers have been identified but they have not released any identities.
The president of Hamburg Technical University, where the two men studied until last year, said he had been informed that Atta was aboard the plane that crashed into World Trade Center Tower One and that Alshehhi was the jet that struck the other tower 20 minutes later.
In the United Arab Emirates,
