Infant Jesus, along with his parents Mary and Joseph will get fitted with satellite tracking this Christmas in order to prevent thieves from stealing them. The nativity scene housed a life size statue of the infant Jesus. The original statue was stolen three weeks ago prompting the satellite tracking measure.
A Jewish lawyer had donated the new statue. Jeffrey Harris told the Miami Herald, "I felt bad. How could someone steal a baby Jesus? Even though I am Jewish, I like the Christmas spirit."
Dina Cellini, who oversees the display, told the AP, "I don't anticipate this will ever happen again, but we may need to rely on technology to save our savior."
According to the AP, the global positioning devices will be bought with the help of contributions from local resident's and donation from Cellini, who has already installed a Plexiglas screen in front of the scene.
