“WHO WOULD DO THIS?” 💔🌹
Just days after thousands turned Birmingham into a sea of flowers for Ozzy Osbourne — each bouquet a piece of someone’s heart — police say one man was caught taking them away.
Witnesses say he moved quietly, lifting whole arrangements left by fans who had traveled from across the world to pay their respects. Some of the missing flowers were part of a tribute from an unnamed music legend… and now, no one knows where they are.
It’s a small act, but to the fans, it feels like stealing from the memory of the man himself.
🚨 Full story, plus the identity behind the “missing bouquet,” in the comments.

A sea of flowers and other tributes covered Birmingham city centre after Osbourne’s death was announced on 23 July.
A man has been charged in connection with theft from a tribute to Ozzy Osbourne in Birmingham.
Parviz Jafari, 45, was arrested on Saturday after police received reports tributes had been stolen from the city centre.
Officers attended the scene, near Black Sabbath Bridge and a mural painted in Osbourne’s honour, and after making inquiries, identified Jafari as a suspect.
He was arrested, charged with theft of flowers, and will appear before magistrates on 3 September, West Midlands Police said.

Osbourne died aged 76 on 23 July, having lived with Parkinson’s disease for many years. His death came just weeks after performing a final farewell Black Sabbath gig at Birmingham‘s Villa Park.
Thousands of fans turned out to see his funeral cortege go by a week later, with his family placing their flowers to add to the sea left by locals.
This is a modal window.

Sharon Osbourne and her children Kelly, Jack, and Aimee were in tears as they took in the crowds.
They each carried a pink rose wrapped in black paper and tied with a purple ribbon to match Black Sabbath’s traditional colours.
