WEBSTER GROVES (KMOX) - Webster Groves Police are continuing their investigation in to a PRIDE, Black Lives Matter, and Trans Lives Matter Flag burnings.

Kelly Stork lives and works in Webster Groves, she arrived at her business Tuesday morning and noticed her PRIDE flag was not flying.

Stork called Webster Groves Police and has been in touch with detectives. She was advised there were several other incidents, including burning Black Lives Matter signs, all in Webster.

Stork vented out her frustrations on social media, but then thought, she'd invite the community to show up at her building in support of LGBTQ people. Stork said "and boy did they ever show up, the yard is now covered in trans flags and rainbows and messages of love and pride."

Stork tells KMOX, police have talked about these incidents possibly being handled as hate crimes.
