PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A stubbornly divided Philadelphia jury will have a day off to dwell on clergy-abuse charges pending against two Roman Catholic priests.

The jury is deliberating anew after telling a judge Wednesday morning they are hung on four of five charges.

Now, they're off until Friday because one juror has an important family conflict Thursday.

The panel is weighing criminal charges against a priest and a church official who supervised him at the Philadelphia archdiocese.
