“Man 'stole video games' from boy's coffin” |
| Man 'stole video games' from boy's coffin Posted: 29 Dec 2010 02:55 PM PST STATE police in Pennsylvania arrested a man accused of stealing video games from the casket of a 17-year-old boy who was killed in a Christmas Day car crash. Jody Bennett, 37, allegedly took a Game Boy, a Game Boy Light and three games from the open casket of his deceased family friend, Bradley McCombs Jr, at a memorial service in Indiana County on Monday night, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette said. Mr Bennett, who has a history of alcohol and drug-related charges, apparently fled the service after the boy's grieving family confronted him. He was charged with vandalism, theft, harassment, disorderly conduct and abuse of a corpse and is being held on $15,000 bail. Mr Bennett's aunt, Dianna Bennett, was not at the funeral but heard about her nephew's unseemly behaviour afterward. "I still cannot believe anyone would do anything like this," she told the paper. "He even had a brother killed when he was drinking and driving ... You think that would make him think, but I don't know." Read more at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
