Kuzniar was arrested Sunday at 11:13 a.m. at St. Sabina Church at 1210 West 78th Place, where Pfleger is pastor, police said.

Kuzniar was arrested at the church twice before Sunday’s incident — on Nov. 8 at 9 p.m. for trespassing and on Nov. 11 at 11:30 a.m. for trespassing and misdemeanor stalking, police said.

“It’s been an issue that’s developed here over the last six to eight weeks,’’ said Pfleger during a telephone interview.

Pfleger said Kuzniar interrupted services three Sundays in a row while he was celebrating Mass and also refused to leave his office. The incidents caused him to get an order of protection against the woman, he said.
