1. Could be? But then, some assaults and robberies have happened at the

cemetery my parents are buried in (Union Hill in Kennett Square, PA.). I can remember being warned about it when I was a kid and used to go up there with my aunt to tend the graves.

2. Well - No Security Cameras And No Eyewitnesses.....

sounds like a pretty smart gunman.

3. It seems to me that a fairly deserted cemetery is a perfect place to rob people....
