Robbers Strike Family at Memphis Wedding

(Memphis,TN)  Sergio Klimkowski  is furious over what happened at the Holiday Inn Express in midtown.  His little brother got married in a picture perfect affair.   The perfect night took a turn for the worse when the brides dad woke up to a stranger in their hotel room.

“He actually saw somebody as they were leaving slam the door and run, he caught the tail end of it, said Klimkowski.

The bride, Hillary Klimkowski, said it was a nightmare the morning after the day every girl dreams of–her parents victimized and even more bad news

“Things were missing, some of those were wedding gifts for my husband and me,” she said.

Cards filled with cash were gone. Five other people here reported thefts to police that night as well.  The couple says the hotel offered no apologies and blamed them for not using deadbolts on the door.

“They even went as far to say, ‘this in Memphis things are ghetto what do you expect?’” said Hillary.

A clerk told us the people who were robbed all had their doors propped open when they went to bed.  A claim the family denies.
