2 Pa. priests removed over sex abuse allegations

ALLENTOWN, Pa. - September 27, 2010

The Allentown diocese removed 54-year-old Monsignor Bernard Flanagan and 74-year-old Father Andrew Ulincy from public ministry last week. The diocese announced the removals over the weekend.

The diocese says Flanagan has been accused of abusing a minor about 25 years ago at Reading Central Catholic High School. The diocese did not release any information about Ulincy's accuser, but says the allegations had nothing to do with the parish.

Phone calls to the diocese early Monday to reach the priests were not immediately returned.
