Somebody was making nighttime visits to farmer Terry Patterson's sheep barn in the 600 block of Big Mount Road in Paradise Township, police said.
Patterson told police he saw the evidence of several sexual assaults on his sheep, but never the intruder.
So he installed an alarm and intercom system.
It sounded about 3 a.m. Tuesday. Patterson went to the barn while his wife, Cindy, called 911.
Bruce Charles Englar, 53, of the 4600 block of Bentz Road in North Codorus Township, is charged with felony burglary for entering a building with the intention of committing a crime, namely, having sexual intercourse with a sheep.
Englar allegedly told police he was just petting the sheep. Northern Regional Lt. Mark Bentzel said it was not a reasonable explanation for being inside somebody's barn at 3 in the morning.
Englar posted $10,000 bail Tuesday for his release from the York County Prison, a spokeswoman said.
Okay, that is just scary. Thanks to Rez, btw, for the link. However, what is scarier is what is at the bottom of the story....PRIOR CASES!!!
· 1997: An Adams County man pleaded guilty to cruelty to animals for sexually assaulting a live turkey in a restroom at the Wampler Foods plant in New Oxford. The man was fined $750.
· 1992: A carnival worker was charged with agricultural vandalism after authorities said he had sex with a ram at the York Fair. The charge was later dropped in a plea bargain.
