BROKEN CROSS The cross of the Black Nazarene breaks as it passes along Hidalgo Street in Manila during its procession on Thursday. It was the third time in five years that the cross broke. The first was in 2014 and the second in 2019 due to a "surge of devotees" who tried to touch the image. PHOTO BY MANILA-PIO AS POSTED ON TWITTER
