Czech police hunt thief who stole 800-year-old skull of saint from church

Mystery Surrounds Daring Heist of 800-Year-Old Saint's Skull In a brazen act of theft, a thief has stolen the 800-year-old skull of Saint Zdislava of Lemberk from a church display in the Czech Republic. The relic, which has been a cherished part of the church's history and heritage, was taken from a display box in a daring heist. Police are now on the hunt for the suspect, who was spotted on a fuzzy security camera photo running between benches in the church while carrying the skull. The image, released late on Tuesday, shows the figure dressed in black, but the poor quality makes it difficult to discern any distinguishing features. As authorities work to track down the thief, questions remain about the motivations behind the theft and the fate of the priceless relic.
