Police have arrested Rev. Carolyn Lorrain Wilson, 55, Tuesday for allegedly having sexual contact with an 11-year-old girl. Investigators say the incident happened in Wilson's apartment at Park Guilderland Apartments in Guilderland.

Now police say they have received another complaint.

"That really turns my stomach it really does," said Katie Murphy, a neighbor.

"It's very unfortunate," said Elaine Garrison, another neighbor.

Wilson is charged with sexual abuse in the second degree and endangering the welfare of a child. Police say while Wilson doesn't face any other charges yet, they have received another complaint and are still investigating. Wilson has told police she is a reverend but Guilderland police say she is not known to be affiliated with any church.

Neighbors on and off camera told FOX23 that they are disturbed and surprised to hear the allegations. They say their apartment complex is a family friendly area with many kids, even a daycare nearby.

"I don't know what to think just having moved here I've never heard anything derogatory or anything," said Garrison.

"This is where we call home and it's just really sad," said Murphy.

Police say Wilson is due back in court Thursday evening.
