Kilgore PD Share Video Of Thief Stealing A Headstone From A Funeral Home
You'll be amazed at what folks are willing to steal and this video out of Kilgore which was shared on Facebook is proof of that.
The Scene Of The Crime Was A Local Funeral Home.
According to Kilgore police, the incident happened at Cunningham Funeral Home located at 600 E. Main Street on January 4th. The time stamp on the video shows that this happened in broad daylight in the 11:00 AM hour.
The Crypt Crook Pulls Up In His Toyota SUV
While police didn't give a description of the vehicle, I know from watching the video that he got to the scene in a Toyota SUV. After he pulls up, he gets out and takes a quick look around to see if anyone is watching before he makes his move.
After opening up the passenger side back seat, he goes for the swipe but it takes him a second because that head stone is kind of heavy but he manages to toss it in the back seat before pulling off from the scene.
