OKLAHOMA — As a motorist passed by St. John’s Baptist Church in a Sapulpa, OK, a small town outside of Tulsa, he didn’t expect to see a flaming cross planted right on the front lawn.
The Creek County Sherriff’s office took pictures and collected evidence from the scene, but no arrests have been made. However, there are three persons of interests including an 18-year-old and two teenagers, all white males.

The cross, made up of wooden parts from a waterbed was propped on a chain link fence before it was set on fire. This isn’t the first time the church has been targeted. It’s been both burglarized and vandalized, suffering broken windows and damage from thrown rocks.
