MEXICO CITY (AP) Police in central Mexico say theyve caught a man who made off with a hearse with a corpse inside.
The Tlaquepaque police department says the hearse had been readied to take the body of an 80-year-old man from a hospital in neighboring Guadalajara to a funeral home.
Police say a 40-year-old man has admitted seeing the keys left in the vehicle and deciding to take it late Friday night.
Officers were alerted and they soon spotted the hearse along a highway and detained the suspect, whose name was given only as Annibal Saul N.
Both the hearse and the body were recovered.
