A burglary was committed in the sacristy of the church Sainte-Foy de Bains (Haute-Loire) on August 14, 2015. The criminals stole sacred objects: a chalice and a ciborium.
This the second burglary in a church in the French region of Haute-Loire in a week. Just over a week before, criminals had entered the Church of Loudes in the same way and had also stolen sacred vessels.
The police have opened an investigation to find the perpetrators of these thefts and the motivation for these crimes is unclear.
