PITTSBURGH – A Pittsburgh-area Catholic priest has been indicted by a federal grand jury on charges he possessed thousands of images of child pornography on his computer, discs, books and photo albums seized by county detectives last month.

The defense attorney for the Rev. Bartley Sorensen did not immediately return calls for comment Wednesday, when the indictment was unsealed.

Sorensen is expected to surrender and be arraigned by a federal magistrate in Pittsburgh on Friday.
