SOMERVILLE, Mass. (AP) — Authorities say an Episcopal priest, formerly of St. James Episcopal Church in Somerville, has been arrested on sexual assault charges involving a child.
The Somerville police chief said the 65-year-old Rev. Paul A. LaCharite of Boston was arrested Friday on one count of assault to rape a child and three counts of indecent assault and battery on a child. Authorities allege the abuse occurred over 10 years. The child and his family were parishioners at the church.
Police would not say if LaCharite was in jail Friday evening.
