AUSTIN (KXAN) — The pastor of First Baptist Church in East Austin is accused of sexually assaulting a child from the church.

Court records state Rev. Dr. Henry McGee, 68, had a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old youth member for more than a year.

Williamson County records say the relationship was initially reported to the Austin Police Department, but later referred to Round Rock Police because McGee is accused of having sex with the minor at a Round Rock hotel in October.

Police said the teen was at a youth group church meeting when her friends asked her what was going on between Pastor McGee and her. The teen told her friends about the sexual relationship, leading to her parents finding out and calling police.
