Car burglars get only 'Jesus'

Noel and Pam Cash said their family went out to eat in Medina Township, near Elyria, with friends after church Sunday and they emerged from the restaurant to find a back window had been smashed out of their sport utility vehicle, Cleveland's WKYC-TV reported Wednesday.

However, they said the burglars missed Pam's purse, which was under a seat, and left the GPS unit in place. Instead, Noel said, "they got Jesus."

The couple said the burglars only took shopping bags from the back of the vehicle and the bags contained Bibles, Sunday school lessons and materials used for holy communion.

"All you can do is pray that they don't do it to anyone else or hurt anybody that it's serious where they take their life, something from them really, really serious, like their identity," Pam said.

Police said there have been a rash of car break-ins in the area.
