According to a Fort Worth newspaper, another victim has come forward claiming Dan Haby Jr., pastor of Cowboy Way Church in Alvarado, sexually abused him as a teen.

Haby, 51, is charged on two counts of indecency with a child and remains free on bond after his July 25 arrest on allegations that he sexually abused a teen he mentored while he was a pastor of the Stockyards Community Church in Fort Worth.

Haby used to live in Fort Worth and the alleged abuse began in 2000, when the first victim was 15, and occurred in his home on Creston Avenue. The victim contacted police in June and investigators obtained two arrest warrants for indecency with a child by sexual contact.

According to the article, the second alleged victim, 25, contacted Fort Worth police detective C.W. Daniels on July 31 after news of Haby’s arrest.

A Fort Worth police report filed Thursday indicates the alleged abused also occurred in Haby’s home on Creston Avenue in Fort Worth.
