Vandalism at a holy site in Bosnia shocking Catholics and Christians [music] all around the world. 
Police arrested a suspect for defacing a statue of the Virgin Mary, the vandal spray painting the face and hands of the statue in black and writing [music] the words devil in a skirt across its pedestal. 
An outdoor altar near the shrine was also set on fire. 
Clean up is underway after the attacks which come just days before an annual [music] youth prayer festival. 
The site became an unofficial pilgrimage site after six children and teenagers reporting seeing apparitions of the Virgin Mary there back in 1981.
