At a local Catholic parish, Good Samaritan Church in Ambridge, Father Joseph Carr recently noticed some accounting irregularities and reported them to the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh. He also told parishioners what was going on.
The diocese is now investigating the matter. An audit will be run to find out how much money is missing, if any, and if a crime has been committed. Police have also been alerted to the possible theft.
When Father Carr was asked if any new details have come to light since the problem was reported, he said, “There’s really nothing new at all. The auditors from the diocese come in and look and see what’s going on and that’s it. We just wait until we hear from them. They are very thorough.”
It could be several weeks before more information is known that can be made public about the incident.
