MERCER CO., Ohio (ADAMS) – A historic Catholic church that was nearly destroyed by fire in Mercer County is seeing additional damage.
Operators of the Churches of Ohio Facebook page posted images of a collapsed wall at Saint John the Baptist Church in Maria Stein on Monday, saying the section of the building was toppled in high winds.
