PennLive staff reports
State police in Maryland have charged a Harrisburg-area man with setting plastic Christmas wreaths on fire in a Hagerstown cemetery. Police said Peter J. Custer, 43, told officers he torched the wreaths at Cedar Lawn Memorial Park on Christmas Eve because “he was trying to save the Earth and the plastic wreaths were non-biodegradable.”
Wreaths from at least three burial plots were burned, investigators said, an act that would have released toxic fumes into the atmosphere. Police said Custer was charged with malicious burning, malicious destruction of property and trespassing. He was released without bail.Note to readers: if you purchase something through one of our affiliate links we may earn a commission.
