Two brothers have been charged with stealing a bridge in western Pennsylvania and selling the scrap metal for more than $5,000.

Police say Benjamin Jones, 24, and Alexander Jones, 25, used a blowtorch to break up the 15m by 6m bridge within the past month. Their charges include criminal mischief, receiving stolen property, theft and conspiracy. AP
