Lawrence police investigate rape of 19-year-old resident
Lawrence Police are investigating a rape reported by a 19-year-old Lawrence resident.
The woman was reportedly raped by a man she met at It's Brother's Bar & Grill, 1105 Massachusetts, Sept. 16.
She left with one of three men she met at the bar that night who later drove her back to his place.
Sgt. Dan Ward, Lawrence Police Department, said she passed out but was conscious at some point of the rape.
The female sustained no injuries.
She filed the report at 4 p.m. that day.
The suspect, who Ward described as a tall male with short brown hair, dropped the victim off at her house at noon on Sept. 16.
Ward said alcohol was not reported as a contributing factor to the rape, but the victim reported that she consumed alcohol before going to the bar.

STATE
New state regulations may result from political ad gaps
TOPEKA — Kansans may be receiving postcards in the mail or hearing radio ads as the election nears, raising questions about elected officials or extolting their virtues. But in many cases, they won't get much information about who's paying for such efforts or who's behind them.
The state doesn't do much to regulate independent groups that are active in politics, if those groups avoid a magic phrases in their literature. If a group is required to disclose information about its activities, the information may not be available to the public until the polls have closed.
Gaps in Kansas law have the state's campaign finance enforcers considering possible changes. Officials are thinking about whether more regulations are necessary. It's part of an ongoing national debate over independent groups, their activities and forcing them to disclose the source of their and how they spend them.
"The more the public knows about the interests and money behind political campaigns, the better it is," said Derek Willis, who tracks campaign finance issues and spending by independent groups for the Washington based Center for Public Integrity.
