CLEVELAND- A priest is now facing felony charges after being indicted on sex related charges.
Rev. James McGonegal is accused of soliciting sex at Edgewater Park earlier this month.
The indictment was released shortly after noon Friday.
McGonegal is now facing three counts, including counts of soliciting and public indecency.
The 68-year-old has “stepped away from his duties” at St. Ignatius of Antioch parish to “attend to his personal matters,” according to a statement released by the Diocese of Cleveland.
A police report states that McGonegal asked a ranger at the park to get into his vehicle.
