FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. - FOX 5 News has learned that Reverend Creflo Dollar, the well known pastor of an Atlanta-area mega church, has been arrested on a family violence charge.
Fayette County deputies arrested the 50-year-old pastor at his home on Sandy Creek Road Thursday night. The arrest warrant alleges Dollar "intentionally caused physical harm to his teenage daughter by grabbing her around the neck and choking her." The warrant states the incident caused a scratch on the right side of the girl's throat.
"The injuries, of course, were just superficial injuries. No medical attention was need. However, they were present," said Brent Rowen of the Fayette County Sheriff's Office. A call by the pastor's 15-year-old daughter prompted a sheriff's deputy to go to the family's gated mansion in north Fayette County.
Way past due for the government to remove the tax exempt status from these churches when they live like kings.
