KMOV
ST. CHARLES COUNTY, Missouri (KMOV) From the day 9-year-old Angie Housman disappeared from her St. Ann bus stop in 1993, Lt. Ed Copeland with St Charles County police and Lt. Col. John Lankford with St. Ann police have been heavily involved in the case.
“When she was taken, I was in patrol and remember very clearly what our department looked like, with the Major Case Squad being called,” said Lankford.
Nine days after she was abducted and then sexually assaulted, a deer hunter found Housman in the August A Busch Wildlife Area in St. Charles County, tied to a tree and left to die. An autopsy found she died of hypothermia.

A hiker in Missouri was injured Saturday after being shot by a hunter who said he mistook him for a turkey, according to authorities.
Officers responded around 12:23 p.m. to investigate a hunting-related incident on the Lewis & Clark Trail at the August A. Busch Memorial and Weldon Spring Conservation Area. A hunter accidentally shot a hiker, thinking he was a turkey, wrote the St. Charles County Police Department on Facebook.
Rescue crews used a utility-task vehicle to reach the injured man, who was airlifted to an area trauma center in serious condition, Kyle Gaines, a spokesman for the St. Charles County Ambulance District, told KSDK of St. Louis.
