Someone stole a cast-iron tomb door from an Albion graveyard.
Police say it was taken from Maple Grove cemetery sometime between Thanksgiving and Saturday.
We're told there has been vandalism at the town's three cemeteries, but this is the first theft.
The chairwoman of Albion's cemetery committee thinks the door was stolen to be sold as scrap.
She says the door is heavy enough to need at least two people to carry it.
