FBI tracks down centuries-old Christian artifact in unexpected place: 'Incredibly exciting'

The FBI recently announced that it recovered a stolen, centuries-old religious artifact from Italy after it resurfaced in an unexpected location: New England.

The 17th-century reliquary urn was obtained by FBI agents on February 11, though officials did not announce its recovery until April 30.

The urn was "one of 17 ecclesiastical artifacts stolen from the Church of San Michele Arcangelo di Cangiano" between 2012 and 2022, the FBI's Boston office said in a statement.

PRICELESS...
