Two boys who vandalised graves in their South Australia home town broke down in tears after their mum handed them in to the authorities for what they had done.
The two boys, aged 10 and 11, vandalised headstones at the Berry cemetery in the small town of Riverland, South Australia.
After finding out what her children had done, the mother called the local council to tell them who'd done it.
"I explained to the boys the meaning of a headstone and that each headstone tells its own story, I explained to them that a grave is a very sacred site for each person," Berri Barmera Council works co-ordinator Otto De Grancy told the Adelaide Advertiser.
