The Pennsylvania attorney general will be announcing details later this afternoon on the arrest of a priest accused of sexual abuse in Westmoreland County.
Attorney General Josh Shapiro will announce the arrest of a priest at 4 p.m. in Lower Burrell, Westmoreland County.
The charges are the result of a broader investigation into sexual abuse by priests, with investigators seeking the public’s help in completing the probe.
Last year, Shapiro announced the result of a grand jury investigation that accused priests and church leaders in the Altoona-Johnstown diocese of sexually abusing hundreds of children.
