A priest was shot at in Cleveland as he was walking around the church property and locking up various buildings Monday night.

Father John Kumse of St. Mary’s Church told police he was walking out of the chicken coop with a carton of eggs when he noticed someone in the bushes near him.

He said he was walking to the parking lot when two teenage boys came up from behind him and said, “Give me the eggs.”

Kumse ran away and the teenagers chased after him, according to police. The priest fell down just before one of the teens shot three times at him.

Kumse told police he was able to run south down E. 155th St. The two teenagers got into a van which was parked in the church parking lot and left the area.
