A lawsuit was filed Wednesday on behalf of a woman who said she was sexually abused by a Minnesota priest.

The law firm Attorney Jeff Anderson and Associates says Father Othmar Hohmann worked in several Minnesota dioceses, including the Diocese of St. Cloud, the Diocese of Duluth and the Diocese of Crookston in addition to churches in other states.

The lawsuit, which was filed in Stearns County, claims Hohmann repeatedly abused a young girl from 1961-1966. The young girl is now an adult.
