EAGLE PASS, Texas Some in South Texas are taking it as a sign from above.
When Border Patrol agents spotted a body in the Rio Grande, they launched a rescue mission. But the supposed victim turned out to be a life-size fiberglass statue of Jesus.
Now, the faithful are flocking to the Eagle Pass police station to view the figure. No one has claimed the statue. One woman told the San Antonio Express-News that its a sign that Christ is alive and with us.
Authorities are considering what theyll do next. Two churches in the area have offered to take it, if the statue isnt claimed within the 90-day waiting period.
City officials added that no matter what happens, they wont be selling the statue of Jesus.
OK, can we all get a grip here? Claiming that this is a sign that Christ is alive and with us? Please
its a floating fiberglass icon. Dont you think that this is very likely a prank played on the unsuspecting by a couple Mexicans with too much time on their hands and a fiberglass Jesus laying around the hacienda?When Border Patrol agents spotted a body in the Rio Grande, they launched a rescue mission.
