Couple Burglarized Evesham Church, Police Say

Evesham Township Police are asking for the public’s help in trying to identify a couple who stole cash and a television from a church last week.

Surveillance footage showed a heavyset white man in a gray sweatshirt and baseball cap walking into the Church of St. Isaac Jogues on Evesboro Medford Road Saturday, police said, and eventually walking out with a 60-inch LCD television.

The man also yanked an offering box for the poor and dumped it out in a closet, taking about $80 in cash, police said.

He worked with a woman accomplice, police said, first backing a GMC crossover-style truck to the church’s doors before loading the television into it and taking off.

Anyone with information about either person or the incident is asked to contact Evesham Police at 856-983-1116, the confidential tip line at 856-983-4699 or via email at Facebook@Eveshampd.org. Anonymous tips can also be texted; just text ETPDTIP and the tip to 847411.
