Dozens of red hands were smeared on the base of the statue of Pope John Paul II in front of the Church of the Holy Rosary in Edmonton, Canada.
A woman is suspected of painting the statue, which sits outside Holy Rosary Catholic Church on the corner of 114th Avenue and 106th Street, police said in a news release Sunday.
