A former Coffeyville, Kan. minister has been arrested and charged with two counts of rape of a minor.

William Keith Dodd, the former pastor of Lewark Church of God in Coffeyville, has been charged with two counts of rape of a minor. His first appearance in Montgomery County Court was last week.

Court documents say Dodd allegedly raped a 12- or 13-year-old two times between Jan. 1 and Sept. 11 of this year. He was arrested after an investigation by the Coffeyville Police Department.

If convicted, Dodd could face life in prison, with no chance of parole for at least 25 years.

Dodd is in custody in the Montgomery County Jail on $250,000 bond. His next court appearance will be Oct. 5.
