GRAFTON, Mass. — Police are investigating after a Buddhist temple was broken into over the weekend.
Grafton Police Chief Neil A. Minardi told Boston 25 that the New England Buddhist Vihara & Meditation Center on Old Upton Road was broken into by an organized criminal group around 1:30 p.m. Sunday afternoon.
Minardi said the three women and lone man drove up to the temple in a dark-colored Honda Pilot before ransacking the temple of cash and jewelry for around 40 minutes.
The group is known to police, Minardi told Boston 25.
A caller observing the temple security cameras called the police around an hour after the break-in.
Cameras did not pick up the Honda Pilot’s license plate.
Anyone who may have seen the dark-colored Honda Pilot or has any information about the break-in is asked to call Grafton police at 508-839-2858.
