Significant layoffs are coming to St. Louis County due to budget cuts. More than two dozen employees in the park and public works departments are losing their jobs, and that's not all. 

St. Vincent Park on St. Charles Rock Road has one of St. Louis County's three public pools. All three pools will now be shutting two weeks earlier this summer because of the cutbacks. But clearly the job losses are a big blow.

The layoffs are the culmination of a budget battle that started last year when County Executive Charlie Dooley threatened to close nearly two dozen county parks, including Lone Elk Park and eliminate close to 175 jobs.

Now the St. Louis Post-Dispatch is reporting that Dooley said Wednesday he is laying off 20 full time employees in the Parks Department and six in public works.

Mexico, Missouri resident Bryon J. Gullion has been arrested. He is suspected of being a serial bank robber also known as the 'Logo Bandit'. The nickname came from logos found on his baseball caps, used during his bank robberies in the St. Louis area.

Gullion is charged with first degree robbery and is being held on $50,000 cash bond at the St. Louis County Justice Center in Clayton.

He was taken in to custody, after further investigation of the January 17th Jefferson Bank and Trust robbery in the Southfield Center. Using information from the Richmond Heights Police Department, authorities were able to identify the bank robbery suspect and affect an arrest of Bryon Gullion, in the 7000 block of Glades in Richmond Heights.

Gullion is still being investigated for additional bank robberies and may be charged with those robberies at a future date.

Thieves got away with flat screen televisions in an overnight smash and grab in University City.  It happened around 4 a.m. at theRent-A-Centeron Olive Boulevard. A Dodge truck used to ram into the business is believed to be stolen.

Authorities believe the suspects escaped in another car.
