SPRINGFIELD, ILL. — A priest who made headlines for unusual behavior last year has a new assignment at a Quincy Catholic church.
Monsignor Michael Kuse told KHQA Father Thomas Donovan began Tuesday as a parochial vicar at St. Peter’s in Quincy.
Donovan returned to the ministry last fall after a bizarre 911 call in January 2013.
He dialed 911 after handcuffing himself inside a church rectory in Springfield.
Investigators say no crime took place.
Father Donovan was a former preacher at St. Peter’s in Quincy.
We’ll have reaction tonight on KHQA News at 10.
