An excerpt...
"Local police are watching the home of an Indiana solider killed in Iraq after the home was vandalized and his family received disturbing phone calls.
Sgt. Rickey Jones died in a roadside bomb blast last week north of Baghdad. He was 21.
On Saturday, someone threw eggs at his family's home. The family also got phone calls from someone who said they were glad that Jones was dead.
Jones' relatives and police are also bracing for the possibility that a Kansas-based group that has created furor at other soldiers' funerals will stage a protest Monday at his funeral.
The protesters may face new restrictions at Jones' funeral if Gov. Daniels signs a bill this week that would make disorderly conduct at a funeral a felony and keep protesters at least 500 feet from a gravesite." |
