Glasgow church foodbank raided by heartless thief who smashed through door
dailyrecord.co.ukA foodbank based in a church in Glasgow is in shock after a callous thief smashed their way inside to raid its supplies. Volunteers arrived at the Free Church of Scotland on Holmfauldhead Place in Govan on Thursday morning to find the entrance had been forced open and food had been stolen.
