DOVER, Del.—A Colorado resident has filed a lawsuit in Delaware claiming he was sexually abused as a child by a Catholic priest.

Attorneys for 65-year-old William Fleming of Denver filed the lawsuit Friday. It alleges that officials with the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington failed to protect Fleming from the late Reverend Walter Power.

A spokesman for the diocese declined to comment.

Power is one of 20 diocesan priests listed in 2006 as having substantiated abuse allegations against them. He died in 1998.
