The Warren County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the theft of a military marker from a local church cemetery and then was taken to sell for scrap.
Fortunately, the scrap yard purchased it and then contacted a local funeral home to notify the next of kin and return it.
The sheriff’s office reported on their Facebook page that this is an absolute disgrace on so many levels. Your addictions do not take precedence over others belongings and what they have earned for themselves and others.
The sheriff’s office is aware of the person or persons involved and will be seeking charges. Violating graves is a Class D felony.
