Woman injured by falling tombstone during 'extracurricular activities' in cemetery

A woman who may have been engaged in sexual activity in Ahavath Israel Cemetery, Trenton, on Tuesday evening was injured when a tombstone fell on her leg, police said.

The 39-year-old woman was not badly hurt, no criminal investigation of the two was launched after the administration decided not to file a criminal complaint.



The woman was with a male friend in the graveyard off Cedar Lane just before 7 p.m. visiting the grave of a relative. When the two engaged in some “extracurricular activities,” one of the grave markers rolled onto the woman’s leg, Capt. James Stevens said.

The woman was taken by ambulance to Capital Health Regional Medical Center for treatment. Police did not know the extent of her injuries.
