Reports say the pastor of the Wesleyan Holiness Church, Barnabas Quinn, telephoned the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and reported the offence of sacrilege.

Apparently, the church was broken into and a quantity of paints and nails was taken; however, they have since been retrieved.

This offence reportedly occurred between 9 p.m. on March 3 and 6 a.m. on March 6.

Reports say the pastor was made aware of the intruder when his CCTV camera system alerted him at about 5:45 a.m.

As a result, he went to the church, where he saw a man – dressed in black and of a slim build – running from the northern side of the building.
Pastor Quinn then carried out a search of the property and found a quantity of paint and nails on the northern side of the fence.

Upon close examination of the building, he noted that there were no signs of forced entry.

However, it appeared that a western door had been left unlocked, which allowed the intruder to gain entry and remove the building supplies.

Investigations into the matter continue.
