Two young men were busted early Wednesday morning for the robbery of flashy and controversial Brooklyn Bishop Lamor Whitehead, which was caught on camera in July.
The men, both 23, have been pinned with federal robbery charged for allegedly storming into the church and pulling guns on Whitehead as he delivered a sermon that was being streamed.
The thieves reportedly made off with more than $400,00 in bling from the ostentatious bishop.
