ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo.—A Rockwood School Board member has resigned after being accused of stealing from two area Target stores. 

A message from the Board of Education says Board Director Izzy Imig has resigned due to “health and personal reasons.” It also said she “no longer wants to be considered a candidate for the April 8 Board election.”

The Board of Education message noted that with the election only weeks away, it is not possible to remove her name from the ballot. 

Imig is accused of stealing a vacuum from the self-checkout at the Target in Chesterfield Commons on March 4. Days later, Ballwin police issued her a court summons for stealing from the Manchester Target. 

With Imig dropping out of the race, that leaves two candidates, incumbent Mara Vorachek-Warren and Sarah Boyer, running for two open seats.
