MS-13 suspected in priest’s death

A priest has been shot and killed by a suspected gang member in El Salvador. A group of parishioners found his body Saturday morning; he had been shot three times. There was a handwritten note next to the priest’s body, signed by the Mara Salvatrucha gang saying “he did not pay the rent,” Vatican News has reported. [1]
