Blair County, PA —

The Pastor of St. Patrick Parish in Newry has been placed on leave from active ministry by Bishop Mark Bartchak of the Altoona-Johnstown Catholic Diocese.

The diocese said Monsignor Anthony Little is on leave because of accusations of sexual misconduct with a minor in the 1990s.

Bartchak has notified the Blair County District Attorney.

Father Raymond Crosser will temporarily be in charge at St. Patrick Parish.
