Corpse in wheelchair in bid to cash cheque

Two New York men wheeled the corpse of their friend around the sidewalks of midtown Manhattan in an office chair in a failed attempt to cash his Social Security cheque, police said. Virgilio Cintron (66) had already died of natural causes when two of his friends, both aged 65, brought him to a cheque-cashing store on Tuesday.
