Someone has snatched a giant, inflatable colon used to teach about the dangers of colon cancer.
The University of Kansas Cancer Center said Friday in a news release that it was stolen from a pickup bed in Brookside.
Surgical oncologist John Ashcraft says colon cancer is a tough subject for many to talk about and the giant inflatable colon is a great conversation starter.
It is 10 feet-long, weighs 150 pound and is valued at $4,000.
It is owned by the Cancer Coalition, which hosts walking and running events under a campaign called "Get Your Rear In Gear."
The Cancer Coalition ships the inflatable colon across the country to help see in a unique way the progression of colon cancer.
One in 20 people will be diagnosed with colorectal cancer.
What kind of asshole would do such a thing? ---
