Police have launched a probe after a naked man ‘spent time in a pony’s stable’.

It’s claimed the suspect entered the building on a farm in Whaddon Lane, near Trowbridge, at around 6.30pm yesterday evening (Wednesday, 24 January).

CCTV first captured the man going into the stable in boxer shorts and a top. However, on emerging approximately 15 minutes later, he was no longer in boxer shorts.

Within the stable was a small pony, which the owner says was swabbed for DNA by a vet.

It’s thought the suspect may have engaged in sexual activity with the animal.

Police swarmed the countryside near Hilperton and carried out urgent searches with support of a drone and dog – but nobody was located.

A spokesperson for Wiltshire Police said that officers responded to “a report of a suspicious incident at a farm…involving a man reportedly trespassing”.

They confirmed that an investigation into the incident is ongoing.

Anyone with information relating to this incident should contact Wiltshire Police by calling 101. Alternatively, you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
