A Woodburn priest was arrested Monday in connection with a case of alleged sex abuse.
At around 1:30 a.m. Monday, Woodburn police received a report of a minor who reported inappropriate contact from Angel Armando Perez, 46, the parish priest at St. Luke’s Catholic Church in Woodburn. Perez was arrested on allegations of first degree sex abuse, using a child in a display of sexually explicit conduct and furnishing alcohol to a minor.
The age and identity of the minor have not yet been released.
