The Catholic Diocese of Lansing has removed another priest over an allegation of sexual misconduct.

The diocese says Father Joseph Aubin has been removed from public ministry because of a credible allegation dating back to the 1960's. The alleged abuse involved a minor.

Aubin is the 5th priest in the Lansing Diocese to be removed or resign this year due to accusations of sexual misconduct or harassment.
