A GL reader sent us an email noting that Mary Star of the Sea Church on Court Street was robbed on Monday night and that the police are looking for help in solving the crime. He wrote:

Two NYPD detectives just informed me that Mary Star of the Sea Church, at Court and Luquer Streets, was robbed last night. Some cash and a cable box were stolen. Please spread the word that if anyone saw or heard anything, they can call Detective Bonilla at 718 834 3221.

The church was dedicated in 1855. You might interested to know that in 1918, gangster Al Capone was married there.
