OWASSO, Oklahoma – A fugitive task force tracked down a Tulsa pastor, wanted for six counts of lewd molestation. Police said he developed a sexual relationship with an underage girl.
Wednesday was a long day for police as they tried to locate and arrest 32-year-old Damien Bonner, the senior pastor at Galilee Baptist Church.
Police say church members taking the pastor’s side and are not cooperating.
Bonner is accused of molesting a 14-year-old member of his Galilee Baptist Church congregation. The young girl came forward last month and told police the senior pastor abused her.
