THE priest son of a former Archbishop of Canterbury has been arrested over claims of historic child sex abuse.

Rev Mark Carey, 51, whose father is Lord Carey, was held at his church-owned home on Wednesday.

His alleged victim, now in her 30s, claimed she was assaulted when he was in his late teens and Lord Carey was a priest in the North-East.

Rev Carey was released on police bail and has since been suspended by the Church of England pending inquiries.

Father of three Rev Carey, who followed his father into the church in 1995, has not been seen since his arrest.
