You are certainly the cat's daddy. :-)

SIA

More like the cat’s butler. :)

I found the Marion police department Facebook page, and it has a media release that reads almost exactly like the news articles. Given the way it’s worded I don’t believe the police responded to the initial report of a possible burglary Given that the homeowner wasn’t sure there was one.

The police media release does add one new detail though: It says the safe was “suspended“ from a jack.




I also found a YouTube video wherein the garage owner is interviewed and the safe — and the clutter — make an appearance. Video also has a quick shot of a heavy duty floor jack but doesn’t explain why it’s shown.




I get the feeling the garage owner doesn’t live at that house, he just stores stuff there.

Also, it wasn’t a gun safe, just an old safe.

I don’t think the police came out until he found the body.

An autopsy will be scheduled.

Is there medical term for "stupidly smashed flat"?

DOS pretty much covers it.

The homeowner, George Hollingsworth, told police he found damage on his garage door frame on Tuesday, March 12 and suspected somebody had broken into the garage at his home on West Third Street in Marion.

Hollingsworth said his garage was full of clutter and told police he would start going through those items on Wednesday, March 13. When he did, he found his 900-pound antique floor safe tipped over and a body underneath it.
