Police wrote in their statement that the safe, which had been held up by a floor jack, appeared to have fallen over onto the intruder as he rummaged through the tightly packed garage.

Additional quote from another article:

"I came in and told my wife, 'I think we’ve got a dead body out there.' She thought I was kidding," said Hollingsworth.


George's wife quickly called 911. Amid the mess of the garage, the first officer on scene initially wasn't sure the man was actually dead.


"The officer walked in and said, 'Buddy. Hey buddy,'" said Hollingsworth. "I’m was thinking he’s dead. Come on now."

Eventually fire crews arrived, lifted up the antique safe and pulled out the mangled corpse.

And finally, turns out the safe was empty:

Hollingsworth isn't sure why anyone would try to move the heavy safe.


"I don’t know. I don’t understand why they would do that," said Hollingsworth. "There’s nothing in it. It’s empty. It’s just one my dad had."
