The New York State Police are asking the public’s assistance after a Johnstown man found in the Waterloo NY area tried to cash in 1,000 lbs of brass military grave markers with Ebensburg, PA markings on them.

These grave markers were likely stolen from cemeteries in our area and police are trying to connect these markers with the victims they belong to.

If anyone recognizes the grave markers, they are asked to contact Cpl. Matthew Auker at mauker@pa.gov.
