Colorado Springs, CO (KSDK) – A former St. Louis priest has been arrested on suspicion of sexually assaulting a child.

Father Charles “Robert” Manning turned himself in Tuesday to Colorado Springs police after an arrest warrant was issued. He has been under investigation since January.

Authorities say the incident happened October 17, 2011.

On January 4, 2012 St. Gabriel the Archangel Catholic Church asked him to step down after they were notified of the investigation.
