DescriptionCLEARFIELD, Pa. - A Republican congressional candidate was charged Thursday with felony burglary and criminal trespass stemming from an encounter last year with an ex-girlfriend.

Derek Walker, a 32-year-old financial planner, called the charges politically motivated because the Pennsylvania primary is Tuesday. The district attorney denied the accusation.

Walker is one of nine candidates seeking the GOP nomination in a race to fill retiring Rep. John Peterson's seat in a sprawling north-central Pennsylvania district. Three Democrats are also running.
