Inquiry into undertaker's unidentified urn under way

By adamg on Fri, 12/30/2016 - 12:01pm

Quincy Police are hoping somebody can identify this urn - filled with ashes - that was found at a local monument maker's shop.

UPDATE: Quincy Police report the urn is sort of an abandoned baby of urns:

The business had no connection whatsoever to the found urn, other than it was placed on their doorstep.

Any tiny markings indented on a) bottom or b) anywhere around casing or c) rims?

If the police really want to ID this urn, then why not give us the name of the monument maker?

Adam added the link after anon left that pointed comment -- which had prompted me to tweet back @quincymapolice for clarification in the first place.

Sometimes thieves take things and then realize that what they have isn't the sort of thing they want around.

I wonder if there are any reports of turns being stolen in a house break somewhere.
