The 68-year-old priest resigned his position last month.A criminal complaint says Dahlberg started writing checks and endorsing them for cash beginning in August 2009. He has been charged in St. Croix (KROY) County with felony theft. The Superior Telegram says he's been placed on administrative leave by the Catholic Diocese of Superior's bishop. An initial court appearance is set for May 12.
