John Donovan has the scoop on a thief that robbed a Marine KIA's house DURING THE FUNERAL.

BRIDGEPORT, Pa. — The apartment of a Marine reservist killed in Iraq was robbed this week while family members were preparing for his funeral, police said. Cpl. John Todd, 25, was killed last month when a roadside bomb exploded. Two other Marines were also killed in the attack.

Todd’s family was getting ready for his funeral on Wednesday when a thief, who apparently was aware of the funeral, broke into Todd’s apartment, ransacked it and stole his computer, police said.

Police in Bridgeport said the theft remained under investigation Thursday.

I hope some Pennsylvania Marines catch up with this guy before the police do...

Update: Joe Foo' The Marine comments that they already caught the guys. Too bad some Marines didn't get to them first...
