Cruel theft dissolves widow's independence in Salt Lake City
Mrs. Thomas Hughes, a year old widow living alone, endured three burglaries in nine days. Thieves stole money, a Social Security check, her purse and keys, a wedding band and diamond rings, and even her sense of independence. A masked intruder threatened her as she slept, while neighbors reported a man seen leaving, and suspects inquired about a quilt sale as trespass incidents mounted. She plans to stop selling apples after the break-ins.
