Police arrested an international scam artist who they say posed as a priest in order to steal from a Queens church and other houses of worship.
Cops collared a fake priest in Queens who turned out to be an alleged international scam artist who preyed on houses of worship in the borough and around the country.
At first, police investigated the incident as a simple burglary — but detectives quickly realized they were dealing with a truly sinister minister. Police sources said Rostas is also wanted in England by the Northumberland police for a similar scheme.Photo by Dean Moses
