MARION, Ind. - An Indiana prosecutor says a former church official is charged with stealing more than $276,000 from church accounts and using some of the money to pay for a vasectomy.

Grant County Prosecutor Jim Luttrull says William Jeremiah Six faces eight counts of theft and one count of fraud.

Six was director of finances for Lakeview Wesleyan Church and Lakeview Christian School from June 2004 to July 2008.
