A man with a prior criminal case in April regarding sexual activity with a horse was arrested again when he was allegedly recently found near two horses with his genitals exposed. 

On April 28, the man was caught at a home in Melrose Township, where he was caught having sex with a horse while feeding it apples.

The result was his being booked into the Adams County Jail on one count of unlawful sexual contact with an animal, a class four felony, one misdemeanor count of criminal trespass to land, and one count of criminal damage of property. After the case was opened, the suspect agreed to plead guilty to criminal damage of property for injuring a domestic animal of another without consent, and prosecutors chose not to pursue the sexual contact with an animal and criminal trespass charges. He received a sentence of time served, two years of probation, and an order for an evaluation of his mental health.
