POLICE investigating the disappearance of a teenager’s ashes from a roadside memorial have closed the case.
A planter containing Jed Johnson's ashes went missing from the site between West Auckland and Evenwood Gate, where the 17-year-old died in a crash in 2014, in late April.
Durham police confirmed it was not returned and the investigation was closed on June 2, pending any new information.
