(New York, NY) -- Police are hunting for suspects after a New York bishop was robbed by masked gunmen during a Sunday service that was being live streamed.

The brazen thieves burst into the Leaders of Tomorrow International Ministries in Brooklyn Sunday morning while Bishop Lamar Whitehead was speaking.

They took off with 400-thousand dollars worth of jewels from the Bishop, his wife, and possibly worshipers.
