Greek priest caught digging for treasure

THESSALONIKI, Greece — A Greek Orthodox priest and his assistant have been caught digging for buried treasure, police said Friday.

The pair were caught red-handed late Thursday after neighbours tipped off the police in the town of Fiska, in northern Greece.

They admitted that they were acting on rumours that archaeological treasures could be found under the church, built in 1854.
