A man accused of stealing cemetery vases in Indiana County and selling them for drug money has agreed to testify against two alleged accomplices, police said.

Timothy McKinney accepted the plea bargain on Thursday.

McKinney, Brian Porter and Walter Bella allegedly stole more than 100 vases from LaFayette Memorial Park and sold them for about $400.

Paul Sonny Orris is also charged in the case.

Prosecutors said Orris knew the vases were stolen, but purchased them anyway.
