Police: Muslims threw Christians overboard during trip to Italy
ROME -- Italy's migration crisis took on a deadly new twist Thursday as police in Sicily reported that Muslim migrants had thrown 12 Christians overboard during a recent crossing from Libya, and aid groups said another 41 were feared drowned in a separate incident.Palermo police said they had detained 15 people suspected in the high-seas assault, which they learned of while interviewing tearful survivors from Nigeria and Ghana who had arrived in Palermo Wednesday morning after being rescued at sea.
The 15 were accused of multiple homicide aggravated by religious hatred, police said in a statement.

What a horrible crime.
Can you imagine having so much hate in your heart that you would dump someone to die in the sea just because they have a different faith than you do?
