Thieves Steal from the Dead

Heartless thieves have broken into a funeral home and stolen treasured items and jewellery belonging to people who have passed away.

Today Humberside Police, the funeral home's owners and the newly-retired Rector of Grimsby, Canon Michael Hunter, made a united plea for the items to be returned for the sake of the deceased's families.

The raid at Steven Near funeral parlour, on Wellowgate, Grimsby, was branded as "distressing" and "tasteless".

A safe was removed, although a quantity of petty cash remained untouched.

It's really terrible that there are people who take advantage of the dead and their belongings buried with them. These kind of people don't have respect for the dead and therefore deserve to be put behind bars for stealing.
