Vandalism at St. Adelimet's Church Altar and Poor Box Robbed

Vandals entered St Adelimet's Roman Catholic Church on Third Street Monday morning, desecrating the altar and attacking the statue of St Anthony. They broke the iron box under the altar, stealing offerings and funds from a second box. Two well dressed men seen in rear pews fled before other worshipers returned, leaving doors ajar as panic spread. The sexton reported the suspects wore neat clothing and stood out from the attendees. Police loss measured at under a dollar plus offerings from the poor box, with church doors repeatedly jolted since dawn.
