Buddhist Temple Robbery Suspect Nabbed in Virginia

It is not yet clear why the group is targeting the temples.

The first arrest has been made in connection to a robbery at a Buddhist temple in Brooklyn. Police said they tracked down one of the thieves in Virginia where another Buddhist temple was targeted. During the robbery in Prospect Park South, four men armed with large screwdrivers forced their way into the temple and ransacked the place while holding a group of monks in a room. The thieves stole two old iPhones and $60 from a donation box. Detectives believe the suspects are part of a crew of thieves who are targeting Buddhist temples. Click here to read more on abc7ny.com.
