A social media appeal to reunite a couple with their lost wedding album backfired terribly when it turned out they definitely didn't want it back.
An elderly man found the album dumped in a bin and, worried it had been stolen, handed it into police in West Yorkshire's Kirklees Rural branch.
So the police set out to track down the owners by launching a Twitter appeal.
They shared some of the photos to see if anyone recognised the couple:
Some people were sceptical from the beginning:
@WYP_KirkRural maybe they dumped it . Could be a divorce thing! Maybe not but it's possible!— Joanne Roberts (@Joanne Roberts) 1474477747
@FellbertaJo Seems to be everyone's theory!! In someone else's bin though...!! Hope it's nothing messy 😩— West Yorkshire Police - Kirklees Rural (@West Yorkshire Police - Kirklees Rural) 1474477885
The police soon tracked down the album's rightful owners thanks to the power of social media - and that's when things got awkward.
It seems that people may have been right about the unhappy ending because the couple didn't want their wedding album back.
Well, they tried their best...
