The Warmachine tournament will be the first of the month 11 a.m. Saturday at the store.

Amanda O'Toole
A short-lived car chase ended in an accident around 7 p.m. Saturday in the eastbound lane of Ninth Street on Massachusetts Street, Sgt. Gary Wieden, University of Kansas Public Safety, said.
The chase, which Wieden said lasted less than a minute, began at the intersection of Tenth and Ohio streets when a KU public safety officer tried to pull over a gray Oldsmobile Delta 88 for speeding.
Wieden said the public safety office did not know how fast the car was traveling down the 30 mile per hour road, and was being pulled over more for an exhibition of speed
The 38-year-old male who was driving the Delta 88 rear-ended a car that was stopped at the stoplight at Ninth and Massachusetts streets. He was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
Wieden said he was later arrested. Amanda Toole
