FRISCO - It was a heavy-duty crime, committed against a humble house of worship.
Lebanon Baptist Church pastor Ray Wilkins has a congregation of about 70, many of whom are helping finish a brand-new church building.
The Frisco church has a soaring sanctuary, a seven-acre lot - and four empty concrete pads where new air conditioning units sat only days ago. The units were stolen sometime over the weekend.
"Yesterday was pretty emotional, but this church is more than its people," Wilkins said. "This church belongs to God, and he's gonna take care of it."
The AC units had been permanently attached months ago, at about $4,000 each.
