CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) –
A former pastor at a Concord Church facing several charges of sex crimes against children in Cabarrus and Mecklenburg Counties turned himself into investigators on Monday.

Robert “Bobby” Bradley Price, 46, is charged with five counts of indecent liberties with a child in Mecklenburg County and several other charges in Cabarrus County, according to records.

Price was reportedly living outside of the country in Central America and had to return to the United States. Price bonded out of jail Tuesday evening.

Price spent 12 years leading youth at Kings Way Baptist Church in Concord. His brother is now the lead pastor.

“I was glad to hear that he’s come back to face these allegations,” said his brother, Pastor Rusty Price.

Price can be heard on a YouTube video thanking the church for the opportunity to be with them every Sunday. The caption says it was a sermon from February 13, 2011.
