Unknown Suspects Steal Baby Jesus in Würzburg

Editor: He who sews abuse scandals reaps irreparable damage to Europe's cultural patrimony.


Wurzburg [merkur-online.de] They came at the light of day and took the Jesus Child with them: From a baroque Church in Sulzfeld unknown thieves took a Jesus-figure and an angel's head with golden wings.

The police in Würzburg on Saturday claim that they had any evidence, at first, of the suspect. Only the time of the crime is clear: both figures were already taken from the open church on Thursday.
