On Friday, crews work to replace the Camas Cemetery headstones that were toppled over by vandals earlier in the week. There has been one arrest so far in the case. The headstone of Alexander Stuber, who died in 1908, was the only one broken into pieces, making it unrepairable. Donations are being accepted at Riverview Community Bank to fund a replacement, which is expected to cost approximately $700.

Camas city officials are hoping the community will step forward to help replace a century-old headstone damaged by vandalism last week.
On Wednesday, it was discovered that approximately 15 headstones, many of them in the southeast “pioneer section” of the cemetery, had been pushed off of their pedestals and onto the ground.
