OWENSBORO, KY (WFIE) -

The Owensboro Police Department has wrapped up its investigation of possible inappropriate conduct between a priest and a minor.

OPD says the allegations against Father John Meredith were non-criminal in nature.

While there was possibly a violation of church policy, based upon the information provided; police say no law was violated.

They say the minor involved is now an adult and did not want to be interviewed by police.

Since the inquiry is unfounded, Owensboro Police say the investigation is closed unless new or additional information is obtained.
