Man steals from church donation box during holidays.

A priest caught a man breaking into the “poor box” of a Philadelphia church just days before Christmas, as shown in surveillance video. The suspect burglarized Our Mother of Consolation Church, a key source of community support during the holiday season, before fleeing upon seeing the priest. The suspect, described as a Black male in a red hooded sweatshirt, is being sought by authorities, who urge residents to contact 911 if seen. The collection box was empty at the time, and no items were taken during the incident.
