Company reports theft of KU football tickets

Lawrence Police are investigating the theft of $1,600 worth of Kansas University football tickets from a development company’s office.

Sometime earlier this month, an undisclosed number of tickets were taken from the business office of Alvamar Development Group, 1611 St. Andrews Drive.

The theft went unnoticed until a couple from St. Joseph, Mo., tried to use a set of the tickets to access a suite at Saturday night’s football game. The couple told KU authorities they had bought the tickets outside the stadium prior to the game, according to a report.
