Summary
A 59-year-old man allegedly stormed a New Bedford church, smashing objects, attacking a priest, and hurling a beer can that cut the priest’s eye—forcing him to the hospital. Witnesses say he stomped, hit a Jesus statue, and was grabbed by the collar before the assault. The man claims the priest pushed him, but police heard him threaten “you’re a dead man” and mention having a bullet—though none was found. He now faces assault charges and a mandatory mental health evaluation. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
