Pennsylvania brothers accused of stealing bridge

Police charge that Benjamin and Alexander Jones stole a bridge in western Pennsylvania and sold its 15 1/2 tons for scrap metal.  Officials of a recycling company called authorities after the brothers said they had permission to carve the bridge for scrap.


           Troubled Waters

Seems Alex and Ben had a plan
To profit by stealing a span;
They sold it for scrap;
The cops say it's a wrap;
They could do a stretch in the can.
