A drunken priest known as "The Sheriff" goes amok with a rifle in Croatia and crashes his car into a tree. When he was arrested he said that even
the Pope makes mistakes. And the Bishop excused him.
From: Drunken priest goes on rampage
A CROATIAN priest beat a member of his parish, threatened others with a rifle and crashed his car in a night of drunken rage, press reports said
today.
The priest, known in his parish as the Sheriff, then took a rifle and threatened other guests before fleeing in his car and crashing into a tree. When
police arrived at the scene he refused a breath test.
"I admit that I have made a mistake. However, everyone makes mistakes, politicians and
even the Pope," said Stefancic who was, according to
press reports, already involved in a series of similar incidents.
The Slunj region's bishop, Mile Bogovic, explained that the priest's violent behaviour was provoked by alcohol."Stefancic did not act alone. The
wine was with him," Bogovic said
That was one hell of a priest if I may say so...
