A Catholic monastery in Subiaco, Arkansas, was vandalized, and three sacred relics were reportedly stolen by a suspect recently apprehended by local police.

A vandal entered the Subiaco Abbey church in Arkansas on Jan. 5 and broke into the altar with a sledgehammer, stealing three holy relics.

The man reportedly began tampering with the tabernacle, removing the cross sitting atop it, before being discovered and fleeing. "By piecing together the testimony from multiple witness who had seen a strange man on campus earlier, we were fairly confident that we had seen him previously in our Church," Subiaco Abbey said in an official press released."Out of an abundance of caution, our Academy students were locked down while the investigation proceeded."A vandal entered the Subiaco Abbey church in Arkansas on Jan. 5 and broke into the altar with a sledgehammer, stealing three holy relics.

The abbey recounted,"Ironically, after the deputies had left, the gentleman in question decided to return to the Church. The Logan County deputies were called and they quickly returned. One of our monks spoke to the gentleman, and it became clear he was the one who had done the damage. He was arrested, his vehicle towed, and further investigations are ongoing."
