Church Bell Swiped from S.F. Catholic Church

Church Bell Swiped from S.F. Catholic Church

The God-fearing folks at San Francisco's St. Michael's Korean Catholic Church have more to fear this week: bell thievery. Over the weekend, it seems, someone stole their massive, church bell that weighs between 400 to 600 pounds. How rude.

"Churchgoers at the Broad Street and San Jose Avenue house of worship were shocked to discover the 110-year-old bell gone on Aug. 17, one day after a seminar at the church let out at around 11 p.m." reports SF Weekly. "Moving the antique bell was no trifling task: The item is described as being about four feet by four feet and weighing between 400 and 600 pounds."

If you've seen anyone lugging around a gargantuan bell, please contact St. Michael's at once.
