A silver church cross was covered in bleach during an attempted theft, which was interrupted by a congregation member who had gone inside to meditate.
Reverend Tony Kaunhoven said it happened at All Saints Parish Church in Bakewell, Derbyshire, on Tuesday.Mr Kaunhoven said the damage caused to the processional cross felt like a "desecration" of something loved. He added: "As he [the congregation member] came into the body of the church, he saw this figure running down the aisle and out the west door.Mr Kaunhoven said the visitor had not realised there was anything untoward about the person he had seen.
Of the chemical substance, Mr Kaunhoven said: "What the police said was that it's used by people that want to hide their fingerprints." The chemical was also found on the church's safe, which police said had been drilled in an effort to get inside.
