EVERETT, Wash. (AP) — A man who volunteered with the children’s ministry at an Edmonds church is accused of fondling a girl and taking photos up the skirts of girls and women.

The Daily Herald of Everett reports that Snohomish County prosecutors charged 55-year-old Terry Jensen of Edmonds on Tuesday with child molestation and attempted voyeurism.

He volunteered as a magician and puppeteer at Westgate Chapel. Church officials removed him and went to police early this year after he was accused of sexual impropriety.
