The pastor of Colonial Christian Church has been indicted on seven sexual abuse counts related to alleged contact that occurred in 1999, 2011 and 2012, according to Colonial Heights police and court records.

Alan Wayne Little, 48, was taken into custody Monday after he was indicted May 3 on three counts of aggravated sexual battery, two counts of aggravated battery by a parent and two counts of taking indecent liberties with a child.

The dates of offense for the first three counts occurred in July 1999, and the remaining four counts occurred in July of 2011 and 2012, according to online court records.

Colonial Heights police said the charges followed an extensive investigation. They did not immediately provide any details about the offenses, including whether any of the alleged victims attended Little’s church.

Police asked anyone with information regarding the case or Little to contact them.

Little has been released on bond from Riverside Regional Jail pending his arraignment on the charges May 23.
