ALUM CREEK, W. Va.--A woman has been accused of stealing headstones from a family's graveyard in West Virginia and using them to decorate her driveway and line her burn pit.
Multiple media outlets report 54-year-old Penny Snodgrass was arrested after South Charleston, W.V., resident Bobby Angel accused Snodgrass of taking his family's headstones from Brounland Cemetery in Alum Creek.
