Local girl reaches top 5 in Victoria's Secret competition

Hometown hottie Ali Turner made the cut in Victoria's Secret Angel Boot Camp. The next round of voting, which will eliminate three more girls, starts Monday at 2 p.m. with videos of the next model challenge and opportunities to vote.

Turner, who grew up in Cape Girardeau and modeled in her teen years, was chosen to be in the competition with nine other girls from around the country. She flew to New York City in late October and has been learning from other Angels and participating in photo shoots as part of the contest.
