Priest arrested in prostitution sting suspended from ministry

Roman Catholic officials said the priest arrested during a prostitution sting in Hamburg last week has been suspended from public ministry, pending the outcome of his criminal investigation and legal proceedings.
The Diocese of Des Moines released a news release Monday regarding the arrest of Rev. Dominic Yamoah on July 9. Yamoah was arrested for solicitation in Fremont County during a police prostitution sting after he allegedly tried to persuade an undercover source to perform sexual acts for money.
