'Moving Madonna' draws faithful
Catholic faithful from across Italy have been travelling to a small town near Naples to see a Madonna statue believers say has taken human form.
Witnesses say the plaster statue in the church of St Peter's in Acerra turns flesh-coloured and moves.
They describe the Madonna becoming a "pinky colour" and say they captured the event on a mobile phone camera.
A local bishop has said he is sceptical but will look at all the evidence provided before making a judgement.
One woman described how she saw "the ear lobe extend and become flesh, just like the nose, which turned a pinky colour", according to Italian news agency Ansa.
