Cemetery caretaker Harold Normandia told police that a total of six tombs had been broken into and desecrated.
Last year, bones from at least 40 bodies went missing from a cemetery in the Puerto Rican mountain town of Gurabo. Relatives said they were devastated by the loss of their loved ones’ remains.
