North End church latest to be hit in string of break-ins

ShinerBoston Police report they have an arrest warrant out for this guy, Richard Shiner, 44, in connection with a break-in at St. Leonard's Church, Hanover and Prince streets.

Police charge Shiner broke into the church on the night of Nov. 28, broke open several donation boxes and stole an undetermined amount of money. Surveillance video and tips led to Shiner, who is still at large, police say.

The past couple of months have seen a rash of church burglaries. Mission Church on Mission Hill was broken into three times in November. Also last month, police arrested a man for a series of break-ins at churches in Dorchester.
