Video: Randy Campbell, of West York, explains how his baby Jesus was stolen twice

There's nip in the air. Christmas music plays on the radio. The stores are packed and Santa holds court in the center of the mall, decorated festively to mark the season.

And in yet another sign that Christmas nears, baby Jesus has been kidnapped.

It happens every year, at least once, in York County, that an infant Jesus is stolen from a nativity scene.

This year, the baby Jesus was taken from the creche in front of Randy Campbell's West York home sometime overnight Tuesday. And in the spirit of starting a new tradition, it wasn't the first time.

The nativity in front of Randy Campbells West York home has a substitute baby Jesus a stranger drove two hours to give him last year.

"It's BS," Campbell, 56, said. "I'm getting pretty tired of it."

It happened last year, the first time in the dozen years or so that Campbell has been erecting the nativity scene in he front yard of his house in the 1400 block of Filbert Street. Two days before Christmas, after some news coverage of the theft, baby Jesus was returned.

"They threw it by the side of the house," Campbell said.

Tuesday night, as he went to turn off his Christmas lights at about 11 p.m., Campbell said he asked his wife whether he should bring the baby Jesus into the house. She told him it would probably be all right, that nobody was going to take him.

"I wake up the next morning and take the dog out and the damn thing is gone again," he said. "I'm getting (tired) of it."

He filed a report with the West York police, who told him they would keep an eye out for the baby Jesus.

He thinks that some neighborhood kids are responsible, that they think it's amusing to steal Jesus.

The theft has him re-thinking the creche.

"I ain't doing it no more," he said.www.ydr.com/News/ci_27109068/Baby-Jesus-stolen-in-West-York

Baby Jesus shouldn't be in the manger until 12/25...

Shouldn't we wait 3 days before we get all hot and bothered about Jesus going missing? It's the guy's m.o., after all, don't want to jump the gun here.

 
Next time they should take the rest of the nativity scene and leave baby Jesus behind in a car seat or something safer than a manger.

Baby could fall out of one of those things.
