The Rev. Charles Manning, 77, a Catholic priest of the Archdiocese of St. Louis, turned himself in to Colorado Springs police Tuesday after a warrant had been issued for his arrest.
Police had been investigating Manning since October.
He was charged with sexual assault on a minor by a person in a position of trust, and contributing to the delinquency of a minor, according to police.
Angie Shelton, the archdiocese’s community relations specialist, said in a statement that Manning had been granted permission to move to Colorado Springs in June 2007.
