It had been another busy day at the Loco Works FC Social Club in Inverurie, with a football match in the afternoon and an evening function too. As Club President, Harold Petrie and his wife locked up - as they had done many times before - there was a raid to try to steal the takings of the day. And this robbery tragically left Harold dead at just 46 years old when he was brutally attacked and stabbed by one of the thieves. Who was responsible for his death?Writing Credit: Chris WoodYou can buy Chris's second book, 'Death in the Theatre' here: https://www.amazon.com/Death-Theatre-Chris-Wood/dp/1399009117Support me at Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrimeWatch my YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@Adam-uktruecrime Hosted on Acast.
