(RNS) Six people were arrested this week and face charges of robbery, trespassing and third degree assault at a Vietnamese Buddhist temple in Rogers, Arkansas, in what appears to be a growing pattern of break-ins and thefts at Asian Buddhist temples across the country.
A Lao Buddhist temple in Phoenix was robbed of $1,500 by a group of women who entered asking for prayers on April 8, sparking concerns for other temples.
A group of 10 to 12 women came to the door of Wat Lao Thammaram at 16th and Purdue avenues in the late morning and asked the monks for a prayer, temple member Phoenix Keoma said.
One woman said her husband was sick in the hospital and asked for a prayer, explained Keoma. In the temple, a monk reportedly did prayers for three of the women.
While the monk was distracted with prayer, she said the other women walked around the temple and entered two monks’ bedrooms. They rifled through the rooms and took $1,000 from one monk in his 50s and $500 from the second monk in his 80s.
