From Connecticut- (with video)Manchester police are searching for the person who stole copper from St. Mary’s Episcopal Church on Park Street around Christmas.
According to police, the crook climbed on up on the church roof multiple times, pilfering from copper flashing and downspouts.
“Apparently it was a crime of opportunity,” explained Manchester police Capt. Christopher Davis. “He saw there was value in the materials.”
According to Rev. Paul Briggs, the absence of such items allowed a wave or water to pour from the ceiling during one of the church services. Although the service continued, members of the congregation had to grab buckets and mops to clean the mess.
