RCMP are investigating a bizarre theft in Labrador that’s left a family in mourning heartbroken.
Police say someone stole an urn from a camper at the Goose River Lodge campground located on the road between Happy Valley-Goose Bay and Sheshatshiu.
The urn, containing human remains, is in the shape of a clear glass skull sealed with purple wax.
The family of the deceased is devastated and are hopeful that the thief, who likely never knew the skull contained ashes, will simply return the urn, no questions asked.
Anyone with information is asked to contact RCMP at at 709-896-3383 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
