A church employee fled when she heard glass breaking, police said.

“While he was inside, Porter caused approximately $8,000 worth of damage to the church,” police said in a statement. “Porter then loaded various electronic devices, including a television and a computer, into his truck along with the bag of church money.” The suspect, who was out on bail for a robbery in Georgia, was found to be in possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia when he was arrested, police said.
