A teenager in Roodhouse, Illinois (about 60 miles southwest of Springfield) probably thought he was being clever or daring when he allegedly toppled a bunch of grave markers at a local cemetery. Nobody was there to see it, right? Well maybe or maybe not.
The
associated press and
Dick Eastman's genealogy column report one boy was trapped and needed to be rescued from beneath a large marker he helped topple. Reports say it took four rescuers to move the stone off of him.
The boy is currently in the hospital recovering from injuries received and will be questioned about vandalism to as many as forty stones, costing $10,000, that night. Police suspect other youths may have been involved. I hope they aren't experiencing and strange happening around them as the wait to see if their friend rats them out ;>
