A priest was arrested after police found child porn on his computers, along with drugs in both his church office and bedroom.

Reverend Christopher King, 51, had five pornographic videos on his computer, which showed sexual activity with boys as young as two or three, according to a felony complaint cited by the New York Daily News.

King, who lived and worked at the St. James of Jerusalem Episcopal Church in Long Beach, New York, was also found with 12 grams of crystal meth and unprescribed Xanax pills.

Nassau County police received an tip about King, and obtained a search warrant before raiding his home on Friday evening, officials said.

King had five child pornography videos on his computer, all of which involved boys under the age of 12, with some as young as two or three, the complaint said.

The videos showed the boys performing sex acts on each other, or with adult men, according to the Daily News.

Twelve grams of crystal methamphetamine were also found in both his home and church office, along with drug paraphernalia.

Xanax pills, for which King was not prescribed, were left on top of his bedroom dresser, the complaint stated.

King has been charged with five counts of possessing a sexual performance by a child and two counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance.

King was arrested at the church, and held on $100,000 bond after he was arraigned on Saturday.

The church has already fired King, saying they have a 'zero tolerance policy' to criminal conduct, a bishop told the Daily News.

According to his LinkedIn profile, King studied theology at Oxford University and worked as a Diocesan Youth Officer for nearly four years.
