WYCOFF (WABC) — A New Jersey youth pastor was arrested on Thursday and charged with sexual assault and endangering the welfare of a child.

David Hayman, 37, of Oradell and former pastor of Cornerstone Christian Church in Wycoff, is accused of engaging in inappropriate sexual contact with youth members of the church.

Police say Hayman engaged in inappropriate sexual contact and exchanged explicit videos with two 16-year-old girls on multiple occasions.

Hayman is also accused of sending multiple sexually explicit text messages to three other girls.

Hayman was the Pastor of Youth and Children’s Ministries for nearly 10 years, where he was led a high school youth group and oversaw younger aged youth groups. He was fired from his position during the summer of 2014 when the church learned of inappropriate text messages he sent.
