STABBED burglar Henry Vincent's funeral will not pass the home of the hero who killed him, police have revealed.
Burglar Vincent, 37, died after being knifed as he broke into OAP Richard Osborn-Brooks' home in Hither Green, South East London, on April 3.

Hundreds of family and friends of the notorious Vincent family are due to gather for the funeral tomorrow.
Travellers plan to lay on the "funeral of all funerals" for the career criminals.
Residents feared Vincent’s friends could clash with the community when the horse-drawn procession takes place.
Vigilantes threatened to stage a roadblock to stop the procession passing the 78-year-old pensioner's house.
Richard Osborn-Brooks and his wife Maureen, 76, have been forced to move out of their three-bedroom terraced home

Iain Gordon urged people to join him on a “manhunt game” where they will help him “take out the trash”.
But Met Police have today said the cortege will not go past Richard's Hither Green home.
A force spokesman said: "We have been informed of plans for the funeral of Mr Vincent and we are of the understanding that the funeral, and the procession, is not due to take place in Lewisham.
The funeral cortege will then follow a horse-drawn hearse to a church in St Mary Cray near Orpington, Kent for the service - close to Vincent's grandparents' home.
"An appropriate policing plan will be put in place."
Crowds are expected to gather at a family home in Swanley, Kent.
How sad. They are depriving Osborn-Brooks of a chance to flip off the lot of them as the cortege passes...Sniff...
Maybe they could drive past other retirees’ dwellings whom the deceased and his partner didn’t get around to robbing?
Those are some tough looming chicks.

I'm assuming "Travellers" = Gypsies... Just living up to their reputation. They have a right to practice their cultural traditions! I'm actually surprised the homeowner wasn't jailed.
Just wow.
Why does anyone tolerate these people?
Yes Gypsies AKA “Gypos”.
Not many other “disadvantaged minorities” can afford to splash out £100K on a funeral, but of course Gypos don’t pay taxes unlike your typical pensioner-homeowner and burglary victim.
Britain is lost.

OK, so they are filthy, criminal gypsy scum. Got it.
Those people actually believe that their thieving is ordained and approved of by God.
Like I said: Filthy savages.
