Los Angeles County officials are offering a $20,000 reward for information that leads to the conviction of those responsible for a series of vandalisms at local cemeteries, where bronze plaques and memorial markers were stolen. The crimes date back to early January, when the Woodlawn Celestial Gardens cemetery in Carson was hit by thieves who stole dozens of plaques and destroyed headstones in the process.
