Brick thrown through window of New Orleans church days after it held transgender town hall

A brick was thrown through the window of First Unitarian Universalist Church during services held Sunday morning, according to Rev. Paul Beedle, the minister of the church.

Beedle said the window hit had been a gift given to the church after Hurricane Katrina. The damage occurred in a side hall of the church, away from sanctuary windows. No one was injured, the minister said.

He added that a member of the church had found the brick after he had taken a child on a walk, while services were still taking place.

The New Orleans Police Department was called following the incident, Beedle said, and a report was taken.
