A Berlin priest has been arrested on charges related to his conduct regarding minors.

Berlin police spokesman John Klett says 41-year-old Michael Miller of Saint Paul's Catholic Church in the Kensington section was arrested Tuesday. He was charged with five counts of risk of injury or impairing the morals of minors and criminal attempt to obscenity, which involves trying to send something obscene.

Authorities declined to provide further details on the accusations

Miller posted $150,000 bond and is due in court on July 26. It could not immediately be determined who is representing him.

A statement on the church's website says Miller was suspended last week over the allegations. It says religious officials are cooperating with police and are concerned about the alleged victims.

Church officials said Miller was not available for comment.
