Just last week, a man was arrested for stealing game consoles from kids with cancer. It seems that even the good vibes of the holiday season isn't enough to keep some people from stooping to all-time lows. This time, a man is currently wanted by the police for stealing a Game Boy - from a 17-year-old, a family friend, that died on Christmas day.

Bradley David-McCombs Jr. was on his way to pick up a relative for a family gathering on December 25th, when his SUV hit a utility pole and flipped on Route 553 in Cherryhill Township, Pennsylvania. The 17-year-old did not make it. The family held the viewing rites in a nearby funeral home.

That was when Jody Lynn Bennett, 38 years old, reportedly nicked a Game Boy, three games, and a Game Boy light accessory from Bradley's casket. When confronted, Jody Lynn fled the scene and police are now searching for his whereabouts. What was he doing there? The Bennetts and the McCombs are friends.

"I sort of figured they would be looking for him," the suspect's aunt, Dianna Bennett, said Wednesday. "I wasn't there (at the funeral home) that night, but we all went over yesterday." Bennett also added that her nephew "has been into drugs, he's into alcohol. He's just messed up."
