Ky. attorney general sues Ohio over rock squabble
Associated Press  (February 2, 2009)
Officials in Ohio who ordered the removal of a historic rock in the  
Ohio River are being sued by Kentucky. The state claims legal rights  
over the rock, which they would like to put on display in their  
state, instead of its current location in a city garage in Ohio.  
Because the Indian Head Rock was a protected archaeological artefact  
under Kentucky law, Ohio officials face charges of felony theft for  
removing it. Ohio claims that removing the rock in 2007 was necessary  
because it had recently been completely submerged under water and was  
in danger of being damaged.   http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090204/
