HARTVILLE, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio man who told authorities that his wife died on a trip to Elvis Presley's Graceland and he turned her body over to emergency responders, now says he put her body in the Tennessee River after she died of natural causes, police said Monday. Police in Hartville, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) southeast of Akron, said 72-year-old Philip Snider had previously told them that Roberta Snider was ill and died in a hotel parking lot in Memphis in early January and he flagged down an ambulance. He told authorities that he didn't know where they took her body, and he came back to Ohio, police said.
