The perpetrators entered the cemetery under the cover of darkness and forced entry into a single crypt in a Colorado cemetery, authorities said.
Human remains interred about 100 years ago were stolen from a private family mausoleum at a cemetery in Colorado, and an investigation into the incident is underway, officials said. Deputies with the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office were dispatched to Crown Hill Cemetery in Wheat Ridge, Colo.
No other incidents were reported elsewhere in that cemetery or others nearby. Authorities declined to identify the remains or the family to whom the mausoleum belonged, saying authorities were trying to locate current relatives. The burials date back to the early 20th century, Kim said. Police had not yet made any arrests in the case Thursday morning. Investigators collected evidence at the scene and were looking to into security footage, Kelley said.
