Police in West Virginia issued an arrest warrant for a man whose three friends were rescued earlier this week after he told authorities that they had gotten lost in an abandoned mine.
The Raleigh County, West Virginia, sheriff’s office said late on Dec. 20 that it had brought charges including giving police false information against Eddie Williams, who had been with the other three in the Rock House Powellton mine near the town of Clear Creek, about 50 miles southeast of Charleston.
