Flowers & Hidden Camera Taken from Cemetery

MACCLENNY, FL -- A Baker County woman was so set on finding the crooks that kept stealing her husbands' grave flowers, she bought a high-tech motion activated camera to catch them in the act.

So was she successful?

Not according to the Baker County Sheriffs Office.

Investigators say the crooks not only made off with her husbands' flowers, but the infrared camera as well.

Deputies say Denise Crews mounted a wildlife camera, mainly used for tracking animals, on a park bench located next to the grave site in Macedonia Cemetery.

The camera was installed under the bench directly facing the headstone.

She told investigators the camera disappeared the next day after installing it.

Visitors to the cemetery say on several occasions they have seen a older model pickup truck parked next to the graveside.

Authorities have no leads at this time.
