The 51-year-old pastor of Bethel Holiness Church in Irvington was arrested Tuesday evening and charged with sodomizing and sexually abusing two boys who are related to him, authorities said.
Dennis Lamar Fields of Grand Bay was charged with two counts of first-degree sex ual abuse and two counts of first-degree sodomy, said Mobile County Sheriff's Department spokeswoman Christina Bowersox.
He was arrested about 6 p.m. Tuesday and taken to Mobile County Metro Jail, where he was released Wednesday on bail totaling $30,000.
A Mobile Register reporter who went to Fields' mobile home Wednesday afternoon in the 10000 block of Lockwood Drive in Grand Bay was confronted by a woman who appeared to be in her 30s.
She said the family had no comment on the charges against Fields and ordered the reporter off the property.
