An Indiana cemetery employee was arrested on multiple charges after allegedly digging up a grave site to steal a gold ring from a burial urn.

On the evening of May 12, an individual on the property of the Oak Lawn Memorial Gardens in Fishers reportedly went to a gravesite containing a burial urn with a gold ring inside. According to reports, it was believed the man dug up the vessel and stole the ring. At the same time, a patrolling officer from the Fishers Police Department noticed a parked car in the area and stopped to check it out.

When they looked inside, the officer reported that the car was unoccupied and spotted a shotgun, in addition to what appeared to be drug paraphernalia. While the police tried to find out who the vehicle was registered to, a 24-year-old man approached them and said it was his. He identified himself as someone who worked at Oak Lawn, and it was noted that there was dirt all over him. The man allegedly informed the officers about the gold ring, and they saw the gravesite and confirmed that it appeared as if the dirt had been disturbed.

An ex-actor who co-starred in a Jack Black movie when he was a teenager was recently accused of four incidents where musical instruments were taken from stores and pawned for cash.

At the end of January, a North Florida music store called in to report the theft of an $800 Les Paul electric guitar and issued a description of the suspect and the serial number of the instrument to the authorities.

In February, the police department was furnished information from the County Sheriff’s Office informing them that about 90 minutes after the alleged theft a pawn shop had purchased a guitar with the same serial number as the Les Paul that was reported stolen.

An elementary school special education teacher has been accused of stealing iPads that belong to the school district and reselling them for profit. Her boyfriend is also a suspect in the purported activity.

42-year-old Amanda Mirkovich has been employed with the Clark County School District in Las Vegas since 2013. For the past three years, she has been on an assignment as a special needs teacher at Tate Elementary School.

During the course of an investigation, authorities were sorting through the transaction records from the local pawn shops on April 3 when they discovered three iPads that raised their suspicions. Upon further inspection, they learned that the electronics had black stickers placed on the underside that seemed unusual. When the stickers were removed an engraving saying “Property of the Clark County School District” was revealed beneath the concealing label.
