Const. Ralph Currie of the Fredericton Police Force said a desktop computer, a laptop, a wireless microphone, a wide-screen computer monitor, a projector and antique coins were among the items stolen. 'The damage was minimal in the building, but there was a significant number of items stolen in excess of $6,000,' Currie said. 'At this point, the investigation is still ongoing.'
Davis, who s a member of the church s board of directors, said Saint Andrew s Presbyterian has insurance and plans to replace most of what was stolen after it pays its $5,000 deductible.

Levenson says he did talk with Mount Horeb village leaders regarding the museum s current home, but he says after careful review he determined the location in Middleton better suited his future plans.
The museum features more than 5,000 jars, bottles, and tubs of mustard from across the world. It also features antique mustard pots, vintage mustard advertisements and about 500 mustards for sale at its gift shop.
It s all about people learning about mustard, the history of mustard, he says.
More than 35,000 people visit the museum each year, according to Levenson.
Doors to the museum s new location are expected to open October 1, 2009.
