Church Vandalized

Vandals break into a mountain church and pour paint all over the sanctuary. The pastor of Corinth Baptist Church in Leicester says the vandals broke in through a basement window sometime Friday night, and used children's paint from the Sunday School room to desecrate the building.

The paint covered almost every surface in the building, including pews, windows, collection plates, a piano and several crosses. The Buncombe County Sheriff's office is investigating. They ask anyone with information to call CrimeStoppers at (828) 255-5050.
