Jesus's Being Stolen At A Rapid Rate

WOODSTOCK – Police are sure that it was not wise men who stole baby Jesus.

At least four baby Jesus statues were stolen from residential Nativity scenes last week.

"What are they going to do next, take the crosses off the churches?" said Linda Popovits, whose Jesus figure was stolen from her extensively decorated Dean Street home.

The theft came just a week after someone placed a handwritten cardboard sign in front of the manger scene that said, "Would Jesus use this much electricity?"

Woodstock police also said thefts were reported Tuesday and Wednesday on Mitchell Street, Dakota Drive and Prairie Ridge Drive.

Mary Reinert said her family was upset when they noticed that the baby Jesus figure had been stolen from their Prairie Ridge Drive home Tuesday.

"You cannot replace a baby Jesus," she said. "You have to buy a whole Nativity scene."
