ALIQUIPPA — Police charged a pastor with molesting two teenage members of his church.

Police in Aliquippa and Beaver Falls charged the Rev. Laneer Fisher of Moon with having illicit contact with the two boys while working at the Miracle Church of God in Christ in Aliquippa.

Investigators say one boy, now 17, came forward in June. The teen claims Fisher caressed and kissed him and had him sit on his lap starting about two years ago. A man in his 20s also has come forward, claiming he was abused about 10 years ago.

Fisher's attorney Dirk Allen Goodwald said his client vehemently denies the charges.
