Bible, minister's robe and CD player taken in church burglary

WBBM-AM:
Four boys, 13, 15 and two of whom who are 14, who are not being identified because of their ages, were each charged with one felony count of burglary to a house of worship, according to police.

The four were arrested Thursday evening after allegedly breaking into the First Cumberland Presbyterian Church, 7941 S. King Dr., according police. The burglary occurred sometime earlier this week.

The victim told police he caught an 11-year-old girl for trespassing to the church and he made out a report for a burglary, indicating that one of the bathroom windows to the church broken into and a Bible, a white minister’s robe and one white CD player were taken, according to police.

The girl allegedly told police she was present during the burglary and knew the four boys who were responsible and she told police where they live, according to police. The girl was not charged.

Police said officers were able to recover the robe in a garbage can after a grandfather of one of the boys told police where it was. Another boy allegedly told police the CD player was in his bedroom and officers found it there. The Bible was never found, police said.
What is wrong?
