ONE TUFF PRIEST

A PRIEST CHASED DOWN A THIEF WHO STOLE TWO BAGS OF MONEY FROM HIS CHURCH:

On Sunday, 48-year-old Reverend Bill Hegedusich was getting ready for morning mass at St. Peter's Parish in Washington, D.C., when he heard someone enter the church. At first, Reverend Hegedusich didn't think too much of it . . . until he heard the door on the church's unlocked safe rattle. So the reverend went to see what was going on . . . and he found an unidentified thief stealing two bags of money.

Anyway, Reverend Hegedusich exchanged a few words with the thief . . . before the guy took off running. But Reverend Hegedusich . . . who runs regularly . . . took off after him, and after a few minutes the reverend was right on the guy's tail. So Reverend Hegedusich started yelling at the thief to give the money back, and the guy dropped one of the bags of money . . . which had about $60 in it . . . and was to be donated to the poor.

According to the reverend, the man probably made off with about $125 . . . and the police haven't arrested the thief yet. (--Still, good for you, Reverend Hegedusich.) (Washington Post)
