HOLLIDAYSBURG, Pa. —
The state attorney general may take over the investigation of a local priest who was suspended last month amid allegations of sexual abuse from more than 30 years ago.

Koharchik is not permitted to function as a priest and won’t have contact with children while he is on leave.
