Someone stole a bit of Ian Curtis! NME is reporting final resting place of the JOY DIVISION frontman was vandalized.

The singer’s memorial gravestone was stolen last night at a cemetery in Macclesfield in the UK. The headstone had been visited by thousands yearly to pay respects to the deceased singer who committed suicide in December 1980. As of right now there are no leads to the theivery and that part of the cemetery was not under any portion of video surveilance. Police are currently looking for anyone who may have witnessed the crime.
