Missouri Capitol Police are investigating several orange gun-target stickers discovered outside the offices of state lawmakers at the Capitol in Jefferson City. They had been placed on the name plates of their doorways. The officials included Senators Jolie Justus, Victor Callahan, Maria Chappelle-Nadal, Kiki Curls, and Robin Wright-Jones, all Democrats, and at least one Representative, Scott Dieckhaus, a Republican.
The cross-hair stickers were noticed around 1:00 pm on Tuesday.
As law enforcement tries to determine whether the stickers were a prank or legitimate threat, at least some of the legislators are taking the stickers seriously.
There seemed to be no direct correlation between the lawmakers. They were first noticed while senators were debating a bill related to President Obamacare.
