Man Trapped Under 1,000-Pound Tombstone Breaks Legs, Charged With Vandalism
MERRILLVILLE, Ind. - A man found trapped unconscious beneath a 1,000-pound tombstone in a cemetery in Indiana faces charges and might have to pay for damages, police said.
Michael David Schreiber's legs were broken by the stone, and the family name on the gravestone left the letter "V" imprinted on his thigh, Merrillville Officer Ray Smith said.
He said it took five officers to remove the headstone from Schreiber's body Sunday morning at Calumet Park Cemetery.
Schreiber, 22, faces charges of criminal trespassing, criminal mischief and public intoxication, police said. He also might be ordered to pay for damage to 14 headstones, Police Chief Nicholas Bravos said. Estimated damage totaled about $8,400, Bravos said.
Schreiber told police he and a companion had been drinking before going to the cemetery.
He estimated he had been trapped under the headstone for more than three hours before police arrived, Bravos said. His condition was not immediately available Tuesday morning, a nursing supervisor at Methodist Hospitals said.
