Curtis' Headstone Stolen

The gravestone of late JOY DIVISION frontman Ian Curtis has been stolen from a British cemetery.


The tragic singer was laid to rest in MACclesfield, Cheshire in north west England in 1980 after committing suicide.


But his headstone has now mysteriously gone missing.


Local police are appealing for any witnesses to come forward with evidence as there are no surveillance cameras in the area.
