Immigrant Starts Ransacking St. Peter’s Basilica
By M Dowling -May 6, 20261 Comment

An immigrant in Italy caused minor damage at St. Peter’s Basilica at the Vatican after jumping onto the main altar and knocking over a 19th-century candelabra, worth several thousand dollars.
 
Video posted on X shows the individual climbing onto the altar, which is used for major liturgical celebrations presided over by Pope Francis.

He’s seen pulling off the altar cloth before being stopped by security in front of stunned tourists.

The altar is located just under the basilica’s famous stone canopy, designed by Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini, which was recently restored.

The suspect is from Romania, and the candelabra he knocked down is worth €30,000 ($31,000), Italian news agency Ansa reported.

Most certainly the Pope will give him housing at the Vatican, food, a livable income, healthcare, free public transportation but will draw the line on a free phone.  Maybe he can get his local Vatican Muslim charity to provide it. :whistle:

Just your average 3rd world shithole Muzzie doing Muzzie things.

Nothing to see here.  Please move along.  Enjoy your visit to St. Peter’s Basilica.
