Thieves target Tri-Cities funeral home. Equipment worth thousands stolen
Kennewick police need help finding two men who grabbed several thousand dollars worth of equipment from a funeral home Thursday morning.
The men drove a 2012 Mazda CX-5 up to a shed at Mueller’s Funeral Home on 1401 S. Union St. and forced it open. They carried the stolen goods to their car and drove away.
Security cameras show the SUV doesn’t have license plates, but appears to have a temporary plate in the side rear window, Kennewick police said.
It also may have several small circular dents on the hood and roof. Also, the right front headlight is broken, the covers for the mirrors are missing and the right side bumper is cracked.
One suspect is 6-foot, with a slender build. He wore a blue Seattle Seahawks hat, blue medical face mask, black windbreaker, a dark blue undershirt and gray Nike sweats.
The other man wore a black baseball cap, blue polo shirt with white pinstripes, black shorts and gray and white athletic shoes. He also has sleeve tattoos on both arms.
Police are asking anyone who recognizes the men to call the non-emergency dispatch number at 509-628-0333.
