CLEVELAND (AP) — A charge against a priest accused of soliciting sex at a Cleveland park has been bound over to another court for possible grand jury consideration.

A court official says the Rev. James McGonegal ((Muh-GAHN’-ee-gul) is charged with soliciting after a positive HIV test. McGonegal did not enter a plea Tuesday in Cleveland Municipal Court. The charge was bound over to Cuyahoga (ky-uh-HOH’-guh) County Common Pleas Court.

Police reports say McGonegal told authorities he has tested positive for HIV.
