Dave Hall and Glenn Taylor Charged in Goblin Valley Rock Topple
US Prosecutors have filed felony charges against two ex-scout leaders who toppled over an ancient rock formation at a state park last year.
Dave Hall filmed Glenn Taylor pushing over the 170 million-year-old sandstone rock in Utah’s Goblin Valley State Park in October and celebrating.
Mr Taylor, 45, was charged with criminal mischief and Mr Hall, 42, with aiding criminal mischief.
The men said the rock was in danger of falling and hurting someone.
If convicted, the men face up to five years in prison and a $5,000 (£3,042) in fines.
