RIVERSIDE, Ohio -- A dozen members of a Riverside church said they were sexually assaulted by their pastor. The pastor is now in the Montgomery County Jail.

Police in Riverside said the allegations involve both children and adults.

The Rev. Dennis Bowling, 45, was arrested around 2 a.m. Tuesday in Miami County after a group of 12 females ranging in age from 10 to adulthood called Riverside police, asking them to go to the church.

Authorities said Bowling was taken into custody at a home in Miami County where he was staying. Investigators said Bowling was booked into the Montgomery County Jail on felony rape charges.

Bowling is the pastor of Kingdom Harvest Church on Valley Street in Riverside. Police said he has been pastor at the church for 19 years.

Bowling is being held without bond, awaiting formal charges.
