Police tow van outside funeral home with body inside

A police tow truck removed a minivan parked outside a New York City funeral home – with a body inside.

Redden's Funeral Home director Paul DeNigris said a windscreen sign had fallen flat, and the van's tinted windows helped obscure the white cardboard box that held the remains.

Mr DeNigris rushed to the car pound and got the van back to get the body to the airport in time for a scheduled flight to Miami. He plans to fight the 115 dollar parking ticket.
