(May 8, 2008)--Three Kingwood teenagers have been arrested and accused of digging up a secluded grave in Humble and removing a skull.
Kevin Wade Jones, 17, and Matthew Richard Gonzalez, 17, told Houston police they and a 16-year old juvenile dug up a grave around March 15.
According to court documents, they removed the skull from the coffin and converted it into a "bong," to smoke marijuana.
Jones and Gonzalez were arrested Wednesday night and are held on misdemeanor abuse of a corpse charges.
The juvenile was referred to Harris County juvenile justice system.
Houston police said they were initially interviewing Jones about the use of a stolen debit card when he told them about the grave theft.
Gonzalez confirmed the story to investigators in a follow-up interview.
A woman who answered the phone at Gonzalez's home, said, "I have no comment right now."
Attempts to locate a telephone number for Jones were not immediately successful.
The grave belonged to Willie Simms.
