Stop! Or My Grandma Will Steal Baby Jesus

The 70-year-old grandmother thought she was engaging in an innocent and tradition-steeped prank in Eureka Springs by stealing the baby Jesus statue from a nativity scene. Think again.

"It was a lark, it wasn't any serious stealing," Virginia Voiers told the Lovely County Citizen newspaper of Eureka Springs. "My granddaughter commented that no one had taken the baby Jesus this year and said, 'Grandma?' I said, 'Oh, what the heck.'"
