[Photos] Man arrested for digging up Kobe Bryant’s grave

A man has been arrested Newport Beach for digging up the gravesite of Kobe Bryant and daughter Gianna Bryant.

Back in February, Dailymail reported that the gravesite in Newport Beach is where Kobe and Gigi were laid to rest.

A man was arrested and placed in handcuffs last Friday after he allegedly tried to dig up the gravesite.

MTO reports that “the man snuck onto the private gravesite with tools and began digging. Police say that the man peeled back the grass and began digging – and he dug fairly deep into the ground. ”

The publication has now released “exclusive images” showing police putting the man in handcuffs and taking photos of the crime scene.

The unidentified man had been seen wearing knee pads, and carrying equipment that he used to dig through the area where he believed Kobe and Gianna had been laid to rest.
