Police have raided three funeral homes across East Yorkshire after becoming concerned about the 'care of the deceased'.
Now there's a sentence I never expected to see in the morning paper!
There are currently police cordons outside the three branches of Legacy Independent Funeral Directors in Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire, Humberside Police said.
Officers received a report on Wednesday evening with inquiries ongoing into whether any criminal offences have been committed.
And here comes the obligatory 'Don't speculate!' that gets rolled out every single time...
Detective Chief Superintendent Simon Gawthorpe said: 'Whilst we are in the very early stages of our investigation, I completely understand this information will be of concern to a number of families and individuals who have lost loved ones and have utilised the services of this business.While asking people to 'refrain from speculation' about what may have happened, he continued: 'At the core of this investigation will potentially be heartbroken and devastated families and loved ones.'
You know what would help with that? Being a bit clearer about exactly what sort of reports you've received and what sort of crimes you are investigating.

They haven’t been finding strange ‘blood clots’ during the embalming process have they?

😏 When that happens, expect a rash of funeral homes mysteriously burning down.
