[....] The Rev. Basil John Hutsko told police he was attacked Monday morning inside the St. Michaels Byzantine Catholic Church as he was praying in the sacristy. The attacker "grabbed him by the neck, threw him down on the floor and immediately started slamming his head against the floor. Both sides, front and back," Merrillville Police Chief Joseph Petruch told CNN affiliate WBBM. The assailant left Hutsko battered, bruised and unconscious. And during the assault the attacker yelled, "'This is for all the little kids,'" Petruch said.
[....] "I have enough there to say it's a hate crime," the police chief said. That's why the FBI has been called in on the case [....]
Comments
It should have been noted in the article that whatever kinda Byzantine Catholic Church this is, it does not operate under Roman Catholic Canon Law., i.e. has its own bishops and hierarchy. Could even be the type where priests may be able to married. So this adds to the absurdity of the attack.
