A Tulsa pastor was arrested Monday on complaints of sexual abuse of a minor after a 15-year-old girl reported to police that she was pregnant with his child.
Gregory Ivan Hawkins is being held on $50,000 bond at the Tulsa County Jail after being arrested at about 3:30 p.m. at 3600 L.L. Tisdale Parkway.
Hawkins, 54, allegedly began the sexual relationship with the girl in April 2012 when the girl was 14, according to his arrest report.
The report states that Hawkins is pastor at Zion Plaza Church, and owner of Zion Child Care & Learning Center, both at 612 E. 46th St. North.
The report states the girl told police she had sex with Hawkins in multiple locations from April 2012 to January 2013, at which time she became pregnant with Hawkins' child.
The arrest report states police recorded two phone calls between Hawkins and the victim, in which he apologizes and admits to having sex with her, saying he found her "very sexy, attractive and beautiful."
Hawkins was arrested at 3:30 p.m. at 3600 N. Tisdale.
