“We know that these events are not the path to happiness,” the cardinal commented in a video through the Twitter account of the Archdiocese of Caracas.
The cardinal was going to the San Francisco de Asís Parish when he was intercepted by two unidentified individuals who boarded the vehicle to steal his belongings, including the seals of the Archdiocese of Caracas.
Among the belongings that were stolen were the liturgical vestments of the cardinal and the parish priest of the area, Miguel Ángel Morales.
