Grave of Schumachers' mother desecrated
The grave of the mother of Formula One drivers Michael and Ralf Schumacher has been desecrated. The grave was dug open in the Kerpen-Manheim cemetery on Wednesday night, police in the western town of Kerpen said on Thursday. They said the coffin had not been opened. Elisabeth Schumacher died in April 2003 at the age of 55. In April, Germany's Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper reported that Manheim, the village on the edge of Kerpen where the brothers grew up, would be demolished to make way for an open-cast coal mine and that its 1,700 residents would have to be moved along with its graveyard. |
