Pastor arrested for drug theft

A Spokane church pastor is accused of stealing prescription medication from a parishioner.

Greg Scott Glover, 35, was arrested about 3 p.m. today after a Spokane Valley police detective hide in the victim’s home as Glover stole Hydrocodone pills, police said.

Glover, pastor of ConnectPoint Church at 1316 N. Lincoln, was booked into Spokane County Jail Friday afternoon on two counts of possession of a controlled substance.

Detective Mark Fox arrested Glover at a ConnectPoint member’s North Park Road home in Spokane Valley. The woman, who had foot surgery and uses a wheelchair, told a Crime Check dispatcher on Oct. 1 that she suspected Glover had been stealing 45 to 60 Hydrocodone pills a month for about six months.

A friend set up a video camera in the woman’s home and recorded Glover stealing pills Sept. 30. Fox said he found 14 Hydrocodone pills when he arrested Glover today- the exact amount of pills missing from the woman’s supply.

Police say Glover has stolen drugs from the woman on at least four prior occasions and may have other victims.

Anyone who feels they may be a victim is asked to call Crime Check at (509) 456-2233.
