Someone walked out of a Brooklyn cathedral with a 4-foot tall gold statue last week and police are investigating the act of thievery.

Surveillance video shows the slicked-hair suspect ambling up the red carpet with the shiny scepter protruding from both ends of his long jacket.

The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Sheepshead Bay in New York seemed empty at the time.

Police say the suspect also store another relic along with $30 in cash, according to the Associated Press.

The artifacts were later found on a stairwell in a building nearby, but the suspect has still not been identified or apprehended.
