A search is underway Wednesday for whoever destroyed a statue at a Catholic church in Chino.

The statue’s head had been removed in the incident.The damaged statue was covered by a white sheet and was surrounded by flowers Wednesday morning.
Police have not said if the vandalism is connected to another incident that recently occurred at a church in Montclair.
Our Lady of Lourdes Church, only about 3 miles to the north, had two of its statues damaged by a vandal about a month ago.The statues’ heads were targeted and destroyed in that incident as well.
