SCRANTON -- A Catholic priest is off the job after church officials say allegations arose that he sexually abused a minor in Wayne County.

The district attorney says the accusations against Father Martin Boylan are under investigation after the Diocese of Scranton made prosecutors aware of the allegations.

The Diocese suspended Boylan after learning of the allegations Friday from the alleged victim, who is now an adult.

Boylan was pastor of St. Patrick's Parish in Scranton, but served at several parishes in Wayne County over the years.

Any suspicions of child abuse can be reported to Pennsylvania ChildLine at 1-800-932-0313 as well as to police.
