PEMBROKE -- A Roman Catholic priest placed on leave by the Diocese of Fall River last weekend was arrested in Pembroke yesterday and charged with one count of possession of child pornography.
A spokesman for Bristol District Attorney Paul F. Walsh Jr. said the Rev. Stephen A. Fernandes of New Bedford was arrested on a warrant issued yesterday.
Fernandes was arrested by State Police assigned to Walsh's office. He was scheduled to be arraigned Monday in New Bedford District Court, spokesman Joe DeMedeiros said.
DeMedeiros said Fernandes was arrested at a medical facility in Pembroke but did not disclose any more details.
