The report emphasizes the importance of fire safety during the holiday season and shares a warm Thanksgiving greeting.
As we gathered around tables to give thanks, our first responders were diligent in their work of keeping St. Louis safe.

IT worker scheme uses U.S. companies to fund North Korean nuclear weapons program
SUMMARY: Fourteen individuals are indicted for allegedly funding North Korea’s nuclear program through a scheme involving remote IT work in the U.S. The suspects reportedly used stolen or borrowed U.S. identities to secure jobs, generating $88 million over six years. The FBI linked one laptop, used to funnel money back to North Korea, to St. Louis. While some identities were stolen from the dark web, others were provided by U.S. domestic enablers. FBI officials urge businesses to thoroughly vet remote IT applicants to prevent further infiltration, as they suspect more North Korean nationals may be operating within U.S. companies.
