Veteran fights to fly flag at Conyers home
CONYERS, Ga. – A veteran is fighting to keep an American flag flying in front of his home.
Retired Army veteran Tony Cumberworth, 73, says the flag has been posted in his yard for 20 years.
However, this week, he received a notice from his homeowner's association telling him he had four days to remove the flag and pole or he's be fined $50 a day.
"I fought for this country, my son fought for this country -- I do not understand them trying to take away my rights," Cumberworth said.
Cumberworth combed the bylaws and the covenant and said he didn't find anything about flying a flag.
