He however escaped on his bike. Police attended the scene to take swabs of his DNA leading to his arrest in March.
According to Dailystar, the young boy’s evil past came up while police was running his DNA through a database, detectives were able to match up his genetic footprint to the horrid act on the horse.
The lad, 16, hung his head in shame as he pleaded guilty to having sexual intercourse with the animal when he was a juvenile. Instead of being jailed, the teen, who is from a stable family, was handed an 18-month community order at Leicester Crown Court.
Recorder Adrian Reynolds said:
“I’m not going to go into the horrible details of what happened on that day, which was a long time ago.
“I’ve every confidence that, with help, you’ll continue your life in the right direction, having already made progress.”
The court heard two women, aged 17 and 21, were walking in the picturesque Aylestone Meadows nature reserve in Leicester when they saw the teen.
Prosecutor Alan Murphy said: “They realised, by the boy’s actions, that he was having sexual intercourse with the foal.
“They were very shocked.
“The police were called and took swabs from the horse’s genital area.
“In interview, he admitted the offence, but initially claimed he was forced to do it by a Polish man.
“He said his ‘head wasn’t in a good place at the time.”
