Madonna of the Streets statue vandalized at St. Catherine of Siena
Police in Portsmouth treat the early morning vandalism of St. Catherine of Siena Church as a hate crime. A storage shed was broken into and a pitch fork plus a garden hose stolen. The Madonna of the Streets statue was pried from its pedestal and hung by a hose at the rectory entrance, suspended toward the doorway. A neighbor reported the incident. Monsignor Burns could not comment.
