An American pastor identified as Bishop Lamor Miller-Whitehead and his members of congregation were robbed of about $400,000 in jewellery on Sunday, July 24.
The pastor and his members were stunned by the incident which happened during a live-streamed church service.
According to Punch, Whitehead was speaking at the Leaders of Tomorrow International Ministries in Canarsie, Brooklyn, when the robbery happened.
Speaking on his social media pages afterwards, the cleric said, “I didn’t know if they wanted to shoot the church up or if they were just coming for a robbery.”
Addressing comments on him having expensive jewellery, he said, “A lot of people are going to say, Why are you so flashy?”
”It’s my prerogative to purchase what I want to purchase if I work hard for it.”
