Missouri Nuns Chase Down Armed Robber on Foot

A pair of sandal-clad nuns in Missouri chased down an armed robbery suspect and helped police put handcuffs on him, FOX4KC reported.

Sisters at Saint Francis of Holy Eucharist Convent in Independence, Mo., spotted a gun-toting man in their fields who turned out to be a suspect police believe is responsible for several burglaries in the area.

"We looked out the window and saw someone in the bean field. I thought it was someone hunting. He was dragging something with him," Sister Connie told FOX4KC. "He kept coming across the field...I saw he had a gun in hands, what I thought was a rifle, and he dropped it in the field."

When he realized he had been spotted the suspect set off on foot and was chased by a nun in flip-flops who goes by Sister Catrina.

She chased him behind their green house and alerted authorities and the suspect ended up in police custody. Charges have yet to be filed.

The perp doesn't have a prayer of a chance against Superior forces.

Doya think they'll light a candle for him?

Not necessarily it may encourage him to a-spire to be better behaved in future.

I hope they are genuine, the nuns would be incense-d if they found out he was faking it.

All the same, Mother Superior is just green with chalice at the development of this story. Her nuns bagged a perp! In flip flops!

Robber obviously never went to parochial school or he would have known that nuns have no tolerance for nunsense.

Had he run through the church, they would likely have simply caught him by the organ.
