In an odd bit of news, a woman from Bethlehem has taken off with the baby Jesus.

Bethlehem, Pennsylvania that is.

Police say the 49-year-old woman stole the baby Jesus from a Nativity scene that was on display at a plaza in the town of Bethlehem.

From there, the story gets even weirder.

The Pocono Record says the woman brought the figurine to a nearby hospital with a note attached to it. The note said that Jesus had been "neglected" by his parents, "Joseph and Mary Christ."

Now maybe the woman just has a strange sense of humor? Perhaps she's mentally not well and needs help of her own? Or maybe the figurine somehow was looking a little lonely?

Regardless, the cops aren't happy with this at all. The Jesus figurine reportedly costs about $2,700. The woman was seen on video stealing Jesus and was later identified.

Now, she's in jail and being charged with theft and institutional vandalism.
