YULETIDE WIT

Jacqueline Ross, 49, stole baby Jesus from a Nativity scene in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, on 4 December and dropped the porcelain figurine off at a hospital with a note that read, in part: “Child has broken right foot which is been (sic) neglected. Parents Joseph and Mary Christ got a warning.” Police didn’t see the joke. Ross was identified from surveillance video and jailed for theft and institutional vandalism. [AP] 16 Dec 2016.
