HUTCHINSON, Kan. (AP) — A friendly worker at a Hutchinson McDonald’s is riding high after one of her regular customers surprised her with a major gift. Watch the surprise here.

Wichita businessman Chris Ellis says he always looked forward to being waited on by Vicki Anderson when he visited the restaurant.

On Monday, Anderson asked Ellis if he knew anyone who was selling a car. Her 1994 vehicle needed repairs that would cost more than the car was worth.

Ellis’ son was trying to sell his 2009 Pontiac. So Ellis bought it and drove it to Hutchinson Wednesday.

Anderson says she had no idea why Ellis and his son asked her to come out to the parking lot.

There, they presented a shocked and tearful Anderson with the Pontiac.

SEATTLE (AP) — A former goalkeeper for the University of Kansas soccer team has been charged with molesting a student while coaching and working as a teacher’s aide at a Seattle high school.

Court records show that 35-year-old Meghan Miller was charged last month with third-degree child molestation and two counts of first-degree sexual misconduct with a minor. She was placed on administrative leave from Ballard High School before her arrest.

Court records say Miller met the student in 2014 when the girl was 14 and going through a difficult period. Authorities say the relationship turned sexual when the girl turned 15. The records say they had sexual encounters in the school locker room and Miller’s office.

Miller graduated in 2004 from the University of Kansas, where she held several school records.

LEAVENWORTH, Kan. (AP) — A Kansas mayor who was recently elected after serving three years in prison has spent his first day in office helping qualified ex-offenders get their criminal records expunged.

Jermaine Wilson presided over his first Leavenworth City Commission meeting as the new mayor on Tuesday evening. Wilson stepped into the mayor’s seat roughly 12 years after starting his prison sentence for drug charges, serving as a symbol of redemption for the city.

Wilson worked with Leavenworth County Attorney Todd Thompson on Wednesday to launch a program assisting those who qualify under Kansas law to be considered for having their criminal records erased. Thompson is planning a 60-day event to offer rebounding ex-offenders help from the prosecutor’s office.

Wilson had his record expunged in 2015.
