'Pedophiles' Spray Painted On Catholic Church Sign: Buckingham PD

BUCKINGHAM TOWNSHIP, PA — Police in Buckingham Township are investigating after someone spray painted the word "pedophiles" on a sign at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church.

According to police, the damage likely happened sometime overnight between Oct. 6 and Oct. 7.

Then, on Nov. 1, the same church reported another sign had been damaged.

It was a sign referring to Christianity, and asking people to inquire through Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, police said. "The sign was temporary but anchored in the ground by wooden stakes. The stakes were broken and the sign thrown into the brush," police said.

Authorities noted it is not known if the two incidents are related, "but both appear similar. "
