Tulsa Police arrested a church janitor after a young brother and sister said he molested them.

Officers say 37-year-old Joe Sims worked at Lewis Avenue Assembly of God at 1315 N Lewis. Police say the children told their pastor that Sims molested them at his house near the church and the pastor called detectives.

The booking report says Simms confessed. Tulsa Police officer Andy Phillips, "Apparently, he was upset, upset that he was found out and arrested and very apologetic."

Sex crimes detectives are now investigating whether there are more victims.

The pastor is out of town until Wednesday night and the person who answered the church phone said they have no comment at this time.
