COLLINS, Mo. -- Allen Kauffman resigned on Tuesday as chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Village of Collins, a town of about 200 people in southern St. Clair County. Kauffman is in jail in Neosho, charged in Newton County with four counts of enticement of a child.

Pam Myers, clerk of the Board of Trustees, says a co-chairman will assume Kauffman's position, which is a village's equivalence to a mayor in town or city.
